AMOREM offers Volunteer Training
Are you looking for an opportunity to make a difference? Do you have the compassionate spirit needed to be a companion for someone’s journey? AMOREM is hosting three opportunities for a two-day training session in October for adults who are interested in becoming hospice volunteers.

An array of topics will be covered to help prepare attendees to become successful volunteers. Participants will learn about the strong community history and commitment of
AMOREM, the physical, spiritual and psychosocial issues hospice patients face and much more from AMOREM's staff of end-of-life care experts.
Currently, there is a need for volunteers to provide companionship to patients in the patient’s homes or long-term care facilities. Other specific needs include volunteers who can provide transportation to doctors’ appointments and shopping excursions for patients, etc.,
veterans to visit and make Veterans Honoring Veterans presentations to patients who are veterans and individuals to volunteer in AMOREM’s thrift store, Thrifts & Gifts.
Attendance is required at each session and meals will be provided. Online volunteer training is also available. For more information or to register for the October 2026 adult volunteer training opportunity, contact us at 828.754.0101 or contact Cyndi Akins at
