Volunteer with Stillwater Hospice
Stillwater Hospice’s well-established volunteer program helps in every aspect of our agency’s services. More than 120 volunteers help our staff serve patients and their families. These dedicated volunteers often sit with patients to give caregivers a well-deserved break, staff the desk at Hospice Home, assist with clerical duties and special events, and welcome visiting family and friends.
Our incredible volunteers even care for patients’ pets and tend our beautiful greenspaces on the Stillwater Hospice campus.
We are proud to be a We Honor Veterans participant. This program matches volunteers who are veterans of our armed services with our patients who are also veterans, to recognize them and thank them for their service.
