Hospice Volunteer Training at BRMC
Starting in February, McKean County VNA & Hospice will sponsor a free four-week hospice volunteer training course in the Ground Floor Assembly Room at Bradford Regional Medical Center (BRMC), said officials.
Classes for the hospice volunteer course will be held Feb. 17 and 24, and March 3 and 10 from 1:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. The training will focus on bereavement and grief, medical aspects of pain and symptom management, and spiritual concerns.
The purpose of the hospice training course is to recruit and train potential volunteers to work in the program. Anyone interested in learning about the concept of hospice is welcome.
Hospice is an alternative for the terminally ill who elect to spend the remainder of their lives at home to be cared for by their loved ones in a comfortable, familiar environment.
McKean County VNA & Hospice is BRMC’s home health agency.
For more information or to register for the course, please call Stacy Williams, BRMC’s director of Volunteer Services, at 362-8288.
