It's flexible! We'll work with your schedule. We offer flexible opportunities, however, we do ask volunteers to sign a time commitment of 40 hours or six months of service.

Heartland Hospice is recruiting for many ways to engage with our clients, who are facing terminal diagnosis, sometimes with family and caregivers, and other times our clients face these diagnoses alone. Our clients, staff, and volunteer’s health and safety are our utmost concerns always. We have many ways for volunteers to engage and change the lives of our patients, follow our HandsOn page, or email Holly Tole, VC for questions about this job listing. If you have the heart for it, we welcome your willingness to serve.
