First and foremost, we seek individuals who are genuinely interested in using their unique gifts, talents and abilities to enhance the quality of life for our patients and their families...who are sensitive, caring and mature...and who are non-judgmental & understanding. Commitment, flexibility and a sense of humor are also important. Hospice volunteers represent a broad spectrum of backgrounds, interests and ages. Yet they all share one common desire: to enrich their own lives and the lives of others by giving generously of their time, energy and talent.

There is tremendous flexibility in when and how volunteers spend their time within these areas. Depending on their duties, volunteers can choose to work during the day, in the evenings or on the weekends. Hospice of Frederick County makes every effort to match assignments with the volunteer’s schedule & availability.
