If you can spare as little as two hours a week
and you’ve been considering volunteer work,why not become a member of the VNA
of Northern NJ Hospice team? As a Hospice visitor, you can deliver comfort and
companionship

to terminally-ill patients and their families in your community.



A free 16-hour training program prepares
volunteers for the role of hospice visitor. The next training will be held on Saturday,
October 19, 2013 from 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. and Tuesday, October 22, 2013 from
5:00 – 8:00 p.m. Classes will be held at the VNA headquarters at 175 South
Street, Morristown, NJ.



Upon completion of the training course,
volunteers receive

assignments which accommodate their individual schedules and geographic
preferences. Hospice volunteers are also invited to participate in various
group activities
throughout the year. For further information, contact BrianPastor, Volunteer
