Call for available times. Volunteers are always needed at the MCC of Toronto's home hospice. Volunteers visit people living with terminal illnesses at home and assist them with light chores, while supplying respite to the main caregiver. They also provide personal care for those who are bed-ridden. Spiritual support, prayer, annointing and communion is also available through a small subset of volunteers.
Hours are flexible, volunteers can choose between evenings or days, at two to four hours per week.
The hospice also holds monthly volunteer meetings where participants can learn more about opportunities and share experiences.
