Genesys Hospice seeks volunteers

(GENESEE COUNTY, MI) Do you want to make a difference in someone's life? Do you have the time to share your skills, talents and compassion with someone in need?
Genesys Hospice is looking for you! This special group of individuals work with hospice patients in a variety of capacities.

Genesys is looking for volunteers to visit patients in their homes or at the Genesys Hospice Care Center in Goodrich; provide companionship, respite, transportation or light housework services; write letters for patients; read to patients; pick up and deliver medical equipment; or offer bereavement and spiritual care support.

If you are interested in helping, Genesys will conduct volunteer training beginning Tuesday, April 22. Classes run every Tuesday and Thursday through May 15 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., at Genesys Hospice Care Center in Goodrich.

The 24-hour training focuses on the hospice philosophy, developing listening skills, gaining awareness of feelings regarding death and dying, patient care, spiritual care and bereavement.
