Volunteers have always been the heart of hospice, and this holds true at Comfort Care Hospice. Many have personally experienced the support of hospice services, while some are drawn by the simple desire to help others.

Comfort Care Hospice volunteers commit their time and talent in a variety of ways. They support patients and families, provide administrative support, function as community liaisons, participate in special events and fundraising activities and provide comfort to patients and their families.
