At
St. Rita's, volunteers lead a program for hospitalized female patients facing
difficult illnesses. Looking better can mean feeling better and this nurturing
service has been created to meet the emotional and physical needs of hospitalized
women. Patients receive a visit from a dedicated and trained volunteer who
may provide a hand massage, make-up application, facial and just make time
to listen. Patient Pride is offered as a complimentary service to St. Rita's
patients.
Patient Pride volunteers at the Cancer Resource Center act as
hostesses in the lobby and reception area. Their main focus is to make the
patient and visitors feel welcome. They visit with patients and caregivers,
offer coffee and cookies, and explain the resource library.
