14 Jan Spring Hospice Volunteer Training

Brattleboro Area Hospice has not currently scheduled its next Volunteer Training due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Applications for future training are being accepted now; we will contact you when the next sessions are scheduled to see whether you are still interested in and able to take the training.

Hospice Volunteers help and support neighbors and their families who are living with life-threatening illnesses throughout Windham County. Help may range from errands and gardening to emotional and physical support. Volunteers report that the work is challenging and very rewarding. Training topics include Hospice philosophy, nuts and bolts of volunteering, ethical issues, personal attitudes toward death and dying, and grief issues among others. Presenters include professionals from the community as well as Hospice staff and volunteers.

The application deadline is to be determined.

Call the Brattleboro Area Hospice office for an application at 257 –0775, or download the form here: https://brattleborohospice.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Hospice-Volunteer-Training-Application.pdf
