WEBINAR DETAILS

When looking at expanding volunteer services, there are two great programs to consider: tuck-in and 11th-hour services. An 11th-hour program focuses on providing support and “presence” for families when death is near. Tuck-in services assist in preparing families for evenings, weekends, or times of reduced staffing, thus lessening the need for on-call services. Both programs can be offered either at the bedside or virtually, making them a good fit for volunteers who are reluctant to drive or make face-to-face visits. This webinar will explore the processes necessary to expand volunteer services by looking specifically at everything that goes into the development of these two programs.

TESTIMONIALS

"Very detailed and I'm grateful for that. Literally could listen to his webinar and begin a "tuck in" program or 11th hour. I expected just a general what to do etc. Exceeded my expectations."

-Tracie, Hospice of Lansing

"Very informative and Mr. Gardia presented the information in a way that was very easy to understand. The presentation covered all the steps we needed to be aware of in order to succeed."

-Dolores, VITAS Healthcare

"I have been a Volunteer Coordinator in Hospice for going on 9 years. This was one of, if not the, most beneficial webinar I have attended. It is relevant, concise, easily applicable and prompts a lot of action on behalf of both the listener and the company they work for. It is a catalyst for good change within Hospice companies."
