Listen to Volume # 077 — Jeff Harmon – “You’re not alone” (Podcast)
“Caregiving 101” on KKYX Radio 680am San Antonio, Texas
Hosts: Starr & Bob Calo–oy
Guest: Jeff Harmon
Broadcast Date: August 8, 2009
Jeff has had 30 years experience with volunteers. Most have had some specific experience to motivate them in this special way. Anybody can help.
What training do you need as a volunteer? Hospice Volunteers can do anything at all, with no task being too small. You can bake cookies, send cards. You could give rides, or even help with some computer work. What is your talent or gift, and how can it apply? An important resource is HEPA training basics that would/could help, such as the importance of privacy, how to feed patients and how to communicate with non-verbal cues when they can’t talk.
At its very foundation, as a volunteer you provide companionship and share the load.
“You touch the very heart of God when you volunteer”.
