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.
