Compassionate Care... Freely Given

Our volunteers come from all walks of life and from all segments of the community. Some come to us with a desire to give back to the community or a personal calling to do hospice work. Others have directly benefited from the services of Hospice of Santa Barbara.  HSB has a dynamic volunteer program. As part of the Patient Care Services team, Patient Care Volunteers enhance the quality of life of those impacted by a serious illness and their families by providing social, emotional, and practical support. 

Our next Patient Care Volunteer Training will be on Wednesdays, noon-3pm, October 2nd – November 6th. (Applications for the 2024 training must be received by September 9th)

If you would like to volunteer in a capacity that is not described above, or you would like more information about volunteer opportunities call 805-563-8820 or email our Volunteer Services Department.
