What is a friend?

A 'Friend' as a job refers to a professional companion who offers emotional support, conversation, and company to clients. This role is sometimes called a 'rent-a-friend' or 'professional friend,' where individuals are paid to spend time with others, attend events, or simply provide a listening ear. The work is strictly platonic and focuses on improving social experiences and reducing loneliness for clients. Professional friends may meet people in person or online, depending on the arrangement and service offered.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a friend, and why are they important?

I'm sorry, but 'Friend' is not a recognized professional occupation and does not have formal key skills or qualifications applicable to employment.

What is the difference between Friend vs Caregiver?

Job description

Today is a great day to bring a smile to those who really need it!

Heartland Hospice of Dayton is looking for compassionate people to join our volunteer team to become a Friendly Volunteer!

As a friendly volunteer, you will be connected to one of our wonderful patients to visit in person and provide companionship in their home or a facility.

Some activities you will do with your patient is:

    • Watch a favorite TV show or movie
    • Read a book, newspaper, magazine
    • Listen to music
    • Doing small crafts or puzzles
    • play games
    • and so much more

We are very flexible with your schedule and will work with what you are able and wanting to do. You can visit once a week, twice a week or something that works with your schedule.

There is no experience needed. We will provide all the training you need at no cost to you.

We do require a Background Check, Drug Screening, Fingerprint and TB Test. We cover all cost and walk you through the whole process.

If this sounds like something you would be interested in, please reach out for more information and our Volunteer Coordinator will email you with the next steps!
