Volunteer Opportunities

Spark a smile. Lend a hand. Pat a shoulder. Listen. Share memories. Cry a little, laugh a lot. Learn new skills. Help someone. Just be there.

Gulf Coast Hospice volunteers are caring angels. Patients and families enjoy the friendly face and attentive ear of volunteers. Our staff appreciates the helping hand volunteers provide. When you become a Gulf Coast Hospice volunteer, you will experience the joy of a lifetime. There is a place for you!

Many opportunities are available. Patient and family companions, weekly “check-in” calls, making comfort blankets, office helpers, light house chores, shopping, and yard work are just a few of the ways you can serve the families of Gulf Coast Hospice.

All volunteers are guided through a comprehensive training .

For information about our program, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Ralph Hawkins, rhawkins@gchospice.com, 713-772-2700.

If you are interested in becoming a hospice volunteer, please contact us. We would be happy to explain the training requirements and available options. An interview, reference check, and background check are required for all patient and office support volunteers.
