Hospice of Michigan will host a lunch and learn event, Hospice 101 – Bring a Friend, which aims to help the not-for-profit raise awareness for hospice and palliative care and recruit local volunteers.
Members of the community and former volunteers are encouraged to attend a Hospice 101 event near them, bring a friend, grab a bite to eat and learn more about the importance of end-of-life care and ways to get involved.
“Hospice volunteers offer our patients a level of comfort and compassion that is vital to their care,” said Lauren Becker-Barkman, volunteer program manager for Hospice of Michigan. “Our patients cherish the time spent with our volunteers – It’s an incredibly meaningful way to give back to your community by donating your time and creating a bond with an individual during end-of-life care.”
Hospice of Michigan volunteers are important in helping to deliver exceptional, compassionate support to patients and families according to its mission of caring for patients wherever they call home, in the same community in which its volunteers live.
