Friday, February 15, 2008 (EST) - Volunteer Training

Beacon Hospice is always looking for dedicated, passionate volunteers to provide care and comfort to our patients. Volunteers enhance the quality of life of our patients and families and help provide the extraordinary care we give to our patients and families.



There will be a free volunteer training at Auburn Hall, Court St., Auburn, Maine on Thursday afternoons from 2/28/08 through 4/10/08. The 7 three hour sessions will run from 1-4pm and will be conducted by various members of our dedicated interdisciplinary team including case manager, chaplain, social worker, bereavement field coordinator and of course volunteers!

If your new year’s resolution list includes service to others, this training will prepare you to serve your neighbors in very meaningful ways as they face end of life issues. To allow time for interviews and criminal background checks, pre-registration is required by February 15th. For more information please contact Elizabeth Herrick, RN Volunteer Coordinator PH: (207) 784-4242 or by email eherrick@beaconhospice.com
