What does it mean to be New Hospice Home Support volunteers are trained to tune in to the needs of the patient, knowing when to ‘do’ and when to just listen, recognizing the changing needs and sensitivities of the situation. After training, a Hospice Home Support volunteer is normally assigned to one patient at a time and commits to about 3 hours a week. This can make a real difference to the quality of a patient’s life. Hospice Home Support continues to support volunteers with ongoing training, supervision groups and social evenings. Here they can meet other volunteers, share experiences and raise any issues that they wish. While the volunteer’s time is given free, Hospice Home Support pays for petrol and out of pocket expenses. If you would like further information about Hospice Home Support and Hospice Home Support Volunteer Training, telephone Linda on 01276 707571. Hospice Home Support is affiliated to the Phyllis Tuckwell Hospice.
