1 Volunteering with Novant Health Hospice & Palliative Care Making healthcare remarkable

2 Have you Considered Volunteering? There are many opportunities for you to share your gifts and talents as you volunteer with Hospice & Palliative Care. We work together as a team to provide physical, emotional and spiritual care for our patients, along with emotional and spiritual support for their families. And, even after the death of a loved one, we are there to support them through their journey of grief.

3 Our Volunteers: All are unique; all are important! Hospice volunteers are a valuable resource to our patients and families. They come from diverse backgrounds and lifestyle situations. A common thread of caring and compassion unites them in their volunteering for hospice. Volunteers find their niche in many different ways.
