Volunteering, Richmond

Hospice of Virginia is seeking volunteers to provide life-enhancing support to terminally ill patients and their families in Henrico, Hanover, Chesterfield, Powhatan, and surrounding counties. There are three areas in which a volunteer may provide services--patient/family, bereavement, and clerical support. The volunteer may help in several ways, including a friendly visit, reading to patients, providing caregiver relief, or more importantly just being there.  



They offer a training course, which upon completion allows the volunteer to visit patients in the home, hospital, or nursing home setting.
