What they do
The Mission of Hospice Volunteers of Somerset County(HVSC) is to Provide Support and Compassion for Those We Serve. Unlike Medical Hospice, A Client Does Not Have to Have A Prognosis of Six Months or Less to Live and Can Still Be Pursuing Curative Treatment. Once A Family Has Lost A Loved One, HVSC Provides Bereavement Services. Those Services Include Mailings, Phone Calls, Support Groups and Memorial Events. All Our Services Are Provided At No Charge to Residents We Serve. Volunteers Are The Backbone of Our Organization. Volunteers Donate Their Time and Skills. Volunteers Take A Training Program That Also Includes Work Outside The Classroom and Each Volunteer Must Undergo A Background Check. While Most Hospice Clients Receive Services In Their Home, Some Clients Are Visted In Nursing Homes. Families Identify The Needs They Have Such As Transportation, Meal Preparation, Respite for The Caregiver, Taking Care of Pets Ect.

- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
Bottom line: Do not decide from a name, mission statement, or tax status alone. Look at where the money went, then ask what changed, who was helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
