Needs From: Volunteer Greater Nashua

Home Health & Hospice Care is currently looking to engage multilingual volunteers interested in supporting patients approaching end of life, as well as their family and caregivers. The greatest need for Spanish, French, and Greek speakers, but HHHC would welcome volunteers from any background to broaden their collective diversity. When a patient and family is going through a difficult time, it may be a great comfort if they can offer a native language speaker to talk with and listen.  Volunteers are required to complete the 33-hour hospice training to volunteer as companions or provide respite for caregivers. Trainings are offered throughout the year. 

Home Health and Hospice Care is actively seeking Spanish, French or Greek speaking candidates, and welcomes volunteers who speak any language, to help us better serve hospice patients and their loved ones.  It is important for them to have a diverse group of volunteers to support the diverse populations they serve. Their Spring 2020 volunteer training course runs February 26 through May 6, every Wednesday morning from 9am to noon. The class is held in their Merrimack, NH office. HHHC volunteers work closely with the nurses, social workers, and chaplains as part of an interdisciplinary team. They offer companion, pet and music services to their patients as well as transportation, respite, vigil, and adult bereavement support.
