We have a variety of opportunities with different sets of expectations and experiences for volunteers. Typical volunteer roles require a minimum of 2 to 3 hours a week. Each role has specialized training and tools which support the rest of the hospice team in providing the highest quality of services to patients and their families.
We serve Southeastern Pennsylvania from our two branches in Bala Cynwyd, PA and West Chester, PA. We also have a sister hospice in Princeton, NJ. View volunteer opportunities at Penn Medicine Hospice Princeton Health
