Great River Hospice is looking for additional volunteers to help meet the
needs of people at end-of-life and their families in Des Moines, Henry,
Lee and Louisa counties.
A four-part training is scheduled from 1 to 5 p.m. on April 8, 15, 22 and
29 at Great River Hospice House, 1306 S. Washington Road, West Burlington,

families in their homes. They also can help the program in other ways,
such as running errands for families, assisting with fundraisers and helping
in the office at Great River Hospice House.
People interested in volunteering must pass a criminal background check
and be at least 16 years old. Registration and completion of application
materials is required before the training begins.
