Celebrating HVHC volunteers at our Annual Volunteer Appreciation Event on June 10!

Volunteers were celebrated for all they do for our community, our organization, and those we serve. Volunteers were recognized for years of service, and our special Zeke Award went to Volunteer, CJ Galbraith, for her exceptional support during the past year for a patient and family who she committed hours to from their time on Palliative Care and then Hospice.

We currently have 90 volunteers! Help us say thank you to this amazing group of people!!! Thank you to our Patient Care, Bereavement, Reiki, Pet Therapy, Evensong, and Office Volunteers!
