A very unique volunteer experience is now available in the Uintah Basin. Volunteers are needed to help with hospice patients and their families. “Family sometimes do not want to leave their loved ones when the time is becoming so precious to be with them,” shares Rocky Mountain Care Volunteer Coordinator Michelle Bristol. “They may need you to help them run errands, help them just by sitting with them and being there for them to talk. Some of our patients are needing social interaction, need help with light housekeeping, maybe run to the store to pick up their order. Sometimes you may be there to just listen to them.” If you are interested in learning more about becoming a hospice volunteer, please call 435-789-3003. If the time is not right for you, feel free to ask family and friends if they would like to become a volunteer.
