Upcoming Events

For over a quarter of a century Nathan Adelson Hospice Volunteers have played a key role in our patient and family care services. Without the efforts of dedicated volunteers, we could not maintain the high quality services the community expects from Nathan Adelson Hospice. We invite members of the community, ages 13 years old and above, to become Nathan Adelson Hospice Volunteers!

In addition to making a difference in the lives of our patients and their families, volunteers will gain practical skills and knowledge through educational opportunities, monthly support sessions and a monthly newsletter.

Volunteer opportunities are available for in-patient and non-patient related areas. Volunteer training is required for those choosing to volunteer with patients and families. Volunteer orientation is required for those choosing to volunteer in clerical or thrift store roles. For more information, call 702-733-0320 or send an email to volunteers@nah.org
