Providing compassionate in-home and out-patient care in Plymouth, NH

Do you feel called to support others? Consider being a Hospice Care volunteer. You’ll be part of a fellowship. You’ll reap the rewards of spirit that come with offering compassionate care to others.

Your main role as a volunteer will be patient and family support. Sometimes we need administrative, community outreach and fundraising support. Choose from a variety of volunteer opportunities to find what best fits your talents and schedule, so that you can best serve others.

Free, specialized training gives you confidence in your ability to help.

FREE HOSPICE VOLUNTEER TRAINING PROGRAM

  • Tuesdays, 5 week Sessions (2-4pm and/or 4-6pm)

Next Session 1/5/2021-2/4/2021

This free program prepares you to help families who are caring for a loved one in their final stages of life.  Most volunteers help 2-4 hours per month.  Our hospice volunteers help in many ways including reading to clients, light housekeeping, walking the dog, or just relieving family caregivers to take a much needed break.

Other volunteers with Pemi-Baker Community Health sing and play instruments or visit with their therapy dogs. We notice a subtle shift in ourselves when we volunteer. We feel more connected to others, and we become less absorbed in the normal stresses of daily life. We share our experiences with others and want to help more. We volunteer because it makes a difference.  Won’t you join us?

“They are so pleasant and willing to help.”

They talk kindly and gently guide my mother to do what she needs to do.  It is as if this is not 'just a job' but they really are enjoying what they do.  They are happy!

You give of yourselves day & night without end!

To the Pemi-Baker Hospice Team--Words really can't express my feelings-

Your help during one of the most difficult times of my life is SO appreciated.  I'm so grateful that because of you, Doug was able to get his wish not to spend the last of his days in a hospital, but at home with those of us who loved him.

And to be constantly reassured that if I needed anything you would be there-oh my gosh-ANYTIME!  Well, you people need to know how much you are appreciated.  You give of yourselves day & night without end!  God Bless you and thank you!

“I’m so happy that I found PBCH!”

I live in Meredith and wanted to exercise in a pool.  The aquatic classes here at Pemi-Baker are fantastic.  I am a member of the 7 am class and we meet three times a week for an amazing class run by Liz.  She changes it up every time and works us with a variety of cardio, strength, flexibility, balance and stretching.  The aquatic program here offers a variety of classes throughout the day; so very easy to fit it into your routine.  I highly recommend that you check it out.  Everyone is very welcoming and we have a lot of fun getting our exercise in.

“The Joint Mobility class has made a world of difference for me!”

I'm in less pain, I sleep through the night, which I haven't done in years, and I've met some of the nicest people.  I look forward to this class so much; when Thursday comes I dread waiting till next Tuesday to see you.

“Everyone is so understanding supportive and kind.”

From the director to the nurses to the health care workers.  So cheerful, helpful and accommodating.  This is our second time receiving assistance from PBCH and we are very lucky to have found this amazing group!  Thank you PBCH for your excellent care and compassion.

“We bonded as people and worked together as a team.”

My therapy experience has been all about partnership. This was the key to success ! My rehab was similar to that of an athlete with the therapists as my trainers using their expertise to progress my knee to the next level, the next stage.

“We’ve loved the swim lessons at Pemi-Baker.”

Anna's gentle and encouraging instruction was just right for making our daughter feel comfortable in the water. We're looking forward to continuing the lessons!
