Make a Difference—Volunteer at Hi-Desert Medical Center
Please complete the following information if you would like to be contacted about volunteer opportunities with the Hi-Desert Medical Center Auxiliary.
You choose the time, date and number of hours available to serve as a Compassionate Companion for a patient who has no family or friends. The program provides for quiet reading, perhaps holding a hand, playing background music. Being there is the most important thing. The goal is death with dignity.
Training classes are scheduled regularly to train volunteers for this program. Currently, training is available: August 26 and September 22 at 3:00 p.m. in the Helen Gray Education Center located on the Hi-Desert Medical Center campus. Registration is required to attend the training classes.
Chaplain Dorothy Thomas coordinates the program. Please provide the following contact information if you want more information about this opportunity or would like to register to attend training classes.
