“One of the greatest gifts you can give is your time.”

Main Street Hospice has compassionate volunteers who provide any where from caregiver respite, patient companionship, music therapy, pet therapy, light housekeeping, etc. Our volunteers inform our volunteer coordinator how often they want to volunteer, their geographic preference (we serve 9 counties), etc. We are so appreciative of any time you can give. We could use more volunteers for music therapy, pet therapy (dog needs to be certified) but would be happy to have you join our team for any other service we provide!

If you or anyone you know is interested in joining our volunteer team, please call the office at 317-736-0055 and ask to speak to Mariah or send us a message on here!

Today we wrap up November - the last day of National Hospice and Palliative Care Month for this year! At Main Street Hospice, we are blessed with caring, compassionate staff who are experts in their individual roles! Hopefully this month our Facebook friends have seen a glimpse into the hearts of a sampling of our staff!
Today let me introduce you to Debbie! Debbie is one of our amazing Social Workers and we are so blessed to have her on our Team!
Debbie shares:

“The Starfish Story has always resonated with me as a social worker:

One day a man was walking along the beach when he noticed a boy picking something up and gently throwing it into the ocean. He asked the boy, "What are you doing?"
The boy replied, "Throwing starfish back into the ocean. The tide is going out and if I don't throw them back, they'll die."
"Son," the man said, there must be hundreds of starfish on the beach. What difference does it make?"
Thoughtfully, the boy bent down, picked up another starfish and threw it back into the water.
Then he smiled and said, "It made a difference to that one."

Almost impulsively, I started with Main Street Hospice about 9 months ago after being retired for a year. Working for Main Street Hospice has been a perfect fit for me because we are able to engage with patients and their families as unique individuals. We recognize that there is no one way to deal with this difficult time and support everyone's journey in the ways they need. I am happy to be part of Main Street Hospice because kindness, respect, expertise, teamwork and empathy are the priorities”
