At Orange Hospice, we understand that the little things often bring the greatest comfort. Medical care is vital but so is having everyday needs met with compassion and kindness. Our Hugs for Hospice program was created to ease the burdens of daily life for patients and families, ensuring more time can be spent together making meaningful memories.
What Patients and Families Can Expect
- Light Housekeeping: A tidy environment can bring peace of mind. Volunteers may assist with small household chores like folding laundry, washing dishes, or tidying up living spaces. These simple tasks help create a calming atmosphere where families can focus on what matters most, each other.
- Grocery Delivery & Meal Prep: Nutritious meals and snacks are important for comfort and strength. Volunteers can help by picking up groceries, delivering essentials, or preparing light meals. Having these needs met allows families to spend less time worrying about errands and more time being present with their loved one.
- Games & Activities: Joy and laughter are powerful forms of care. Volunteers bring companionship through simple games, puzzles, cards, or shared activities that encourage connection and brighten the day. These visits help patients stay engaged and offer families opportunities to enjoy moments of happiness together.
Why It Matters
Hugs for Hospice is more than a helping hand; it’s about showing patients and families that they are surrounded by love and support. Whether it’s a clean home, a warm meal, or a friendly game, these acts of kindness bring dignity, comfort, and relief during life’s most delicate season.
