Reverend Joseph E. Kurtz, D.D. Bishop | Archdiocese of Louisville

Hildegard House, located at 114 Adams St., is seeking volunteers to serve as compassionate companions, providing end-of-life care for individuals who have no home or loved ones to care for them.

Volunteers will be expected to serve a weekly five-hour shift, offering care so residents may die with dignity and access hospice care. This information was detailed in a press release from Hildegard House.

A training session for new volunteers is scheduled for Aug. 15 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Interested individuals can register by visiting www.hildegardhouse.org and completing the online volunteer application. For further information, call 653-1488.
