Since 1980, Family Hospice & Palliative Care has been providing compassionate comfort care to patients with a life limiting illness and their families. Today, as the largest not-for-profit in the region, Family Hospice and Palliative serves communities in eleven counties in Western Pennsylvania. Volunteers are the soul of hospice. They play a critical role by always lending a hand or opening their hearts. Volunteers are an important part of the hospice team. By volunteering for Family Hospice and Palliative Care, you help to enhance the lives of those who live in your community.
