Volunteer Training
Through training, hospice volunteers learn how to give the gift of the heart in providing emotional support, companionship and a listening ear to our clients and families. Our volunteers are carefully screened and given orientation. Additional training is required for direct client work with palliative or bereavement clients. Educational training conforms to Ontario provincial hospice standards. Volunteers must respect client and family privacy and maintain confidentiality at all times.
Information on other external workshops and seminars are shared with volunteers through this website, Volunteer Update Newsletter and posted on the office bulletin board.
