Hospice Visitor (Volunteer)

VON's Hospice Volunteer Visitors are specially trained, caring volunteers who visit with clients and their families to support them through a life-limiting or end-of-life journey.

Volunteer visitors offer compassion, a listening ear and emotional support to help improve the quality of life for those living with a serious life-limiting condition and for their families. They provide companionship and share activities or interests. They often become part of the respite support for caregivers needing a break from their roles.

Hospice or palliative volunteer visitors can visit clients in the community, in hospital or long-term care setting.
