Companionship and Presence: Simply sitting with the patient, holding their hand, or engaging in "life review" (listening to stories about their past).

Reporting Observations: While volunteers do not provide medical advice, they can alert the nursing staff if they notice a change in the patient's breathing, comfort levels, or if the family is in distress.

"The Gift of Time": Staying with the patient so the caregiver can nap, shower, go to the grocery store, or attend their own medical appointments.

Emotional Venting: Often, the caregiver needs someone to talk to about their stress and fatigue just as much as the patient does.ption text goes here
