Character & Professional References

Vaccination Requirement

Prior to their first day with Hospice of Davidson County, volunteers are required to either be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or have been granted a medical and/or religious accommodation exemption, as set forth in Hospice of Davidson County's COVID-19 policy.

Code of Ethics for Volunteers

As a volunteer, I realize that I am subject to a code of ethics similar to that which binds the professionals in the field in which I work.  I, like them, assume certain responsibilities and expect to account for what I do in terms of what is expected of me.

I understand that any information that is disclosed to me while assisting the Hospice is confidential. 

I interpret "volunteer" to mean that I have agreed to work without financial compensation.  As a volunteer worker, I expect to do my work according to the standards set forth in Volunteer Policies and Procedures.

I understand that my acceptance as a volunteer is contingent upon the successful completion of my references, criminal background/sex offender investigation and pre-volunteer drug screen.

I understand volunteers must attend a volunteer workshop requiring 12 hours of education and that Accreditation Commission for Healthcare (ACHC) requires 12 hours of continuing education annually.  I understands that I must also submit to a TB test prior to volunteering.

Declaration

I hereby certify that the statements made on this application are true and correct to the best of my knowledge.  I understand that by submitting this application, I authorize inquiries to be made concerning my character and public records for the purpose of determining my suitability as a volunteer.
