VOLUNTEER
Our volunteers are an essential part of the Roozen Family Hospice Centre. We would not be able to offer all of our programs and services at no cost to the community without generous volunteers like you. Each volunteer is a key component in helping us achieve our mission and vision. Thank you for choosing our organization to share your time and talents.

CLIENT CARE VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES:
Social Programming & Complementary Services
Volunteers share with residents, clients and families their talents and interests to increase their quality of life while at our center. This may be either one on one or in a group setting. This can include any of the following, but we are always looking to widen our scope of services to offer.
NON-CLIENT CARE OPPORTUNITIES:
Volunteers are the ‘hearts and hands’ of hospice.
Currently over 100 volunteers give more than 3800 hours of service each year. Many describe it as “the most fulfilling thing they do with their time”.
