IN-HOME VOLUNTEER TRAINING

We offer our comprehensive 30-hour In-Home Volunteer Training throughout the year. This training explores personal attitudes about death and dying, the history of hospice, current medical and non-medical approaches to end of life care, communication skills, anticipatory grief and bereavement, and spiritual, practical and emotional support needs of clients and families including family dynamics.

In-Home Volunteers provide 3-4 hours of service per week. This training is also pre-requisite for other trainings offered by Hospice SLO County including End-of-Life Support and Community Grief Response.
