A new year brings a lot of “what ifs.” What if we slowed down. What if we reached out. What if we showed up for someone else. Volunteering is one simple way to turn good intentions into something meaningful. Our volunteers don’t just give their time. They offer presence, compassion and reassurance to patients and families when it matters most. If you’ve been thinking about volunteering in 2026, this might be your sign.

The Hospice of the Western Reserve is always looking for people to volunteer, writes guest columnist John Bailey.

Grief doesn’t follow the calendar. When a new year begins, the world may seem to move forward, while your loss feels just as present. If January feels heavier, you are not alone. Our team is here to walk alongside you with care, presence and understanding. Find an upcoming group or program: hospicewr.org/events

The holidays do not pause the need for care and neither do we. Day or night, weekday or holiday, our teams are here 24/7 to answer calls, manage symptoms and support patients and those who love them. When questions arise or comfort is needed, a caring voice and experienced guidance are always just a phone call away.

The holidays often bring connection and cherished traditions. When a serious illness enters the picture, these routines can shift in unexpected ways. Families may find themselves navigating new emotions and new plans while still wanting to honor the season in a meaningful way.
