About this service
Hospice Muskokas Visiting Volunteer program can provide you and your family social, emotional, and practical support within the comfort of your home - whether that is in the community, a retirement home, long term care residence or even hospital. Our volunteers visit regularly to provide companionship and a listening ear along with an opportunity for family caregivers to feel comfortable taking a much needed break. Often caregivers will schedule appointments or run errands during this time. Sometimes, the caregiver can maintain their social and recreational networks while the volunteer is at home or even take a rest or complete household chores. Our volunteers are great companions but can also assist with preparing a small snack, letter writing, take care of a beloved pet, play cards, games or read to the individual whatever is required for your loved one to feel comfortable. Conversation is not required if the individual would rather rest.
