Now that many volunteer opportunities are back (most masked or vaccinated), organizations like Crossroads Hospice & Palliative Care in Kansas City are seeking positive, energetic and compassionate volunteers.
Volunteers provide direct comfort, companionship and a helping hand to terminally ill patients and their families in their homes, assisted living facilities and nursing facilities. Whether it be running errands for a patient, sharing in favorite activities or just providing company, the role of a Crossroads volunteer is both needed and fulfilling. This is a chance to bring one’s interests and talents to the forefront and to share them with others.
Administrative volunteer assignments in the office are also available.
All first-time volunteers are provided with ample support, including a training program and regular feedback. A Crossroads Volunteer Manager always accompanies a volunteer on every first patient visit.
Volunteers can be as young as 16. Students are welcome to apply.
