Volunteer Services
Thank you to the talented Lakeshore Quilting Guild in Hendersonville! Their members donated 41 gorgeous handmade quilts to us to use with patients.
Death doulas are specially trained volunteers who provide support and comfort in the final days and hours of a person’s life. They help patients and their loved ones simply by being present in a vigil at the bedside when the dying person has started to transition.
Pet therapy (also known as “animal-assisted activities”) is one of the most beloved parts of our volunteer program. You might say it’s the warmest and fuzziest aspect of Alive, and it’s not hard to see why!
