Patient Support Volunteer Services
As a patient and family support volunteer, you bring comfort and a compassionate presence to a terminally ill patient and their caregivers, while visiting in the patient’s home setting or a care facility. Volunteer requests from our hospice care teams include providing companionship, relief time for caregivers, assistance with errands, transportation to appointments or offering vigil presence for dying patients. There are also administrative opportunities to support this program.
Non-Patient Support Volunteer Services
You don’t need to volunteer directly with patient and families to make a big contribution towards our mission. Non-Patient support volunteers help us in other ways at By the Bay Health.
- Fundraising support opportunities such as
- annual gala
- administrative support
- annual gift wrap fundraiser
- Sewing of personalized “comfort bears” supports grieving children in our Bereavement Counseling Program
