Care volunteer for sleeping service in particular

Are you caring but also practical? Do you mind doing sleep shifts? Come and help our nurses care for the guests in the hospice! Healthcare experience is not necessary. We provide loving and hospitable care for seriously ill people during the last phase of their lives. The care volunteers for sleeping services do about 4 sleeping services per month. The sleep shift is from 11 PM to 8 AM. You have your own bedroom with sanitary facilities at your disposal. You can sleep as usual and will only be awakened by the nurse on duty if she needs extra hands at the bedside. You will be well trained and supervised. You are prepared to follow relevant courses and training and you participate in team meetings, twice a year. In principle, we ask new volunteers to be available for at least one year.
