Volunteer
Our volunteers are the heart of Prairie Hospice Society. Volunteers receive comprehensive training in order to offer non-medical support to people living with a terminal illness.
What is hospice care?
Hospice care is meant for people in the final stages of a terminal illness and provides support for people to die painlessly and with dignity, ensuring both the people receiving the care and their loved ones get the resources they need to allow that to happen.

"When my dad rapidly became ill, we realized added assistance was required, especially given his desire to stay in his own home. Prairie Hospice offered our family much needed hope and help. Dad lived out his last months grateful for those he met through Prairie Hospice. He nicknamed them 'his guardian angels,' and to us all, they were." —Brynn Boback-Lane

“I would have to scramble for rides, that’s for sure. Or my daughter would have to take time off work and it’s not always easy finding someone. People work. Going by taxi is expensive, particularly if you had to go a few times per week.”
