MIDDLETOWN Middlesex Health’s Hospice Program is looking for volunteers to work in home care and nursing home settings throughout Middlesex County.
Volunteers are a valued and integral part of the Hospice Program. They work with patients and their families as they cope with the challenges that come with having a terminal illness.
Hospice volunteers have direct patient contact, help with tasks that relate to bereavement and provide administrative support. Volunteers who are military veterans connect with patients who are also veterans as part of the We Honor Veterans program.

JAMAICA â The Jamaica Select Board has a decision to make about the Depot Street bridge, and that decision could cost taxpayers between $154,000 and $423,000.
Laura Stone, a civil engineer with the state of Vermont, told the board Monday night the lower cost would be for rehabbing the current bridge, which is owned by the town and is almost 100 years old, and the higher cost would be for a new bridge just upriver from the current location.
âThe Select Board can choose which direction they want to head in,â said Stone. But, she said, the board needs to make a decision before the end of the summer if it wants the bridge work to be done in 2024. A late decision could push the start date out a year, said Stone.
Two public meetings hosted by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation this week that centered on plans to replace the Bourne and Sagamore bridges was light on details and offered few answers to residentsâ questions.
The meetings were held remotely via Zoom on Tuesday and Wednesday, and June 29 and 30. The Tuesday session drew upwards of 300 participants. The project team readily admitted that the replacement project is in the very early stages of development, and the purpose of the meeting was primarily to get input from the public.
Many of the attendees for Tuesdayâs meeting asked questions relative to how construction of the new spans will impact their daily lives, if any land takings were planned, and if those takings would include their properties.
