To Become a Caregiving and Bereavement Volunteer

An enlightening, three-day training program to learn about the various aspects of non-medical patient assistance is required of all caregiver volunteers.  Training is offered four times per year.  Additional training is required for Adult and Children's Bereavement volunteers.  Numerous continuing education programs and renewal opportunities for volunteers are provided. Click here for more training information.
