Share Compassion

Patient Companionship

Our Patient Companionship program offers volunteers a meaningful opportunity to connect with patients during a vulnerable time. Volunteers can support the nursing staff on our inpatient unit, (The Butterfly Wing), by welcoming visitors, offering companionship to patients, and assisting with a variety of other tasks.

Help a Furry Friend

Pet Peace of Mind

Join our Pet Peace of Mind program and make a difference in the lives of both pets and their owners. Volunteers of all ages can help with basic pet care like walking, feeding, and cleaning. You can also organize donation drives to collect essential supplies like food, bowls, and litter. Adults can take on fostering responsibilities, providing temporary homes for pets in need, or help with transportation to vet appointments. Together, we can ensure that beloved pets receive the care and attention they deserve, easing the burden on their owners during challenging times.

Help Children Impacted by Grief

Camp Conquer

This unique camp helps to teach children how to identify and conquer their emotions by taking them through the five stages of grief. Adults can sign up to volunteer to help children through this difficult time. 

Share Your Talents

Music Ministry

Join our Music Ministry and make a meaningful impact in the lives of patients through the healing power of music. Volunteers of all ages can participate by playing music for patients, whether through instruments or singing, bringing comfort and peace during difficult times.

Honor Our Heroes

We Honor Veterans

Honor and connect with fellow veterans by volunteering with The Hospice of Baton Rouge. You can help organize and participate in pinning ceremonies, recognizing the service of our veteran patients.
