The Heart of Care Dimensions
In 2018, 539 volunteers donated over 45,000 hours of service. Our volunteers are motivated by a desire to give something back, but soon find that the emotional and spiritual rewards they receive far outweigh the time and caring they contribute.
What It Takes to Be a Volunteer
Care Dimensions volunteers are special people. They’re kind, sensitive to others and they’re non-judgmental. They have the ability to listen, are reliable and most importantly, they truly care. Many people would like to be a volunteer, but are not sure what is expected of them, and if they have the right skill set. Because Care Dimensions is a large, multi-faceted organization, we offer varied opportunities and extensive training for volunteers – from direct interaction with patients and families to work in our accounting department. No volunteer is placed in a position that he or she is not trained to do, or is uncomfortable doing.
As a Care Dimensions volunteer, you need to:
- Commit to being a volunteer approximately two hours per week over the course of one year
- Attend volunteer training
- Be dependable
- Be patient
- Know your strengths and your limitations, and when to say no
Becoming a Volunteer Today

Did you know?
Hospice care programs are mandated by law to include five percent of patient care hours from volunteer community members. This honors hospice's origins as a volunteer movement and respects the unique kind of caring and a point of view that volunteers bring. This is one of the things that makes hospice care unique in health care.
