What Are Volunteer Hospice Services?

Hospice volunteers play a vital role in enhancing the lives of patients and families. At Ability Home Health & Hospice, our trained volunteers offer companionship, support, and relief to those navigating serious illness and end-of-life care.

Serving families across Northern Utah—including South Jordan, Salt Lake City, Provo, Ogden, and Nephi—our volunteer program helps patients feel less alone while giving families peace of mind.

Our team matches each volunteer with tasks based on their interests and availability, creating a meaningful experience for both the patient and the person giving their time.
