Volunteers
Our volunteers come from a variety of
backgrounds. What they all share is the experience of losing a loved
one.  Each is carefully screened to ensure that he or she possesses
sensitivity, compassion, excellent communication skills and a desire
to be of service to others.
All volunteers complete an intensive
36-hour training program conducted by community professionals with
a wide variety of skills and expertise.  Communication skills,
psychosocial and spiritual issues, grief and bereavement, the
role of the volunteer and hospital orientation are a few of the
topics covered.
