Volunteers Needed: Hospice

St. James Social Service Society
will be opening the May Gut-

located in Vancouver’s downtown
eastside and will be providing
hospice care for the terminally ill.
This is the first free-standing

The Community Home will be
staffed by a Nurse/ Coordinator

quire volunteers. The program is

panionship for, and support to, in-

dividuals who are experiencing
the process of dying. Training will
be provided through the Van-
couver Hospice Program.
Interested individuals should
contact Tyleen Katz, RN,
