Volunteer Services

Patient Care and Bereavement Volunteers are an integral part of our inter-disciplinary team and the care we provide to our terminally ill patients and their families. Hospice Southeastern Connecticut is fortunate to have more than 100 trained volunteers who actively support the agency and its mission. After completing a 24 hour training program, volunteers are assigned as needed to a patient and family where they offer supportive care and services such as:

• Emotional support
• Assistance with household chores
• Companionship
• Transportation
• Meal Preparation
