What are the responsibilities and job description for the Pet Therapy Hospice Volunteer position at Interim HealthCare Inc.?
Make a significant difference in the lives of individuals receiving hospice care and their families by becoming a volunteer with Interim HealthCare. We offer rewarding opportunities to share your empathy and support during this critical time.
Hospice is an integrated program of medical, spiritual, and social care for terminally ill patients in their last six months of life. It is founded on the belief that the final stage of life should be lived with the greatest degree of comfort and dignity possible. We believe in enhancing the quality of life when quantity is limited and respecting patient decisions to forgo extraordinary measures meant only to prolong life. Interim Hospice & Palliative Care, in partnership with the patient, family, professionals, and trained volunteers, enables the patient to remain as free as possible from suffering and distressing symptoms of disease. Our team approach provides the best possible care to patients and their families during the last phase of life’s journey.

A soft paw, a warm nuzzle, or the simple comfort of not feeling alone. Through Interim's Pet Therapy Volunteer Program, you and your pet can create and be part of moments that truly make a difference. A simple visit can ease anxieties, bring back memories, remind patients they are not alone, and simply make their day brighter.
For someone on hospice, a visit for you and your pet isn't "just a visit", it's a moment of peace, a sense of calm, a reminder of love and brings so much happiness to bring a smile when it's needed most.
Whether you visit patients in their homes, a nursing facility, or assisted living, your time and your pet's presence can make an immeasurable difference. This is more than volunteering; it's showing up when it matters most. It's offering comfort without words. It's being part of something truly meaningful.
Join the Interim Healthcare team and help create moments of connection, compassion, and peace with one wag, one purr, one pet at a time.
