Volunteers are needed to serve patients and families throughout King and Snohomish counties. The hospice and palliative care volunteers provide service to the patient and family by providing companionship, life review, compassionate presence, light household help, running errands, or providing respite so the primary caregiver can have a break.

Hospice volunteers are assigned to patients in their own neighborhood.

Evergreen offers training to prepare people for the work and volunteers are part of the care team supported by the nurses, social workers and volunteer coordinators.
