REGENCY HOSPICE NEEDS
YOUR HELP!
 We are looking
for compassionate and caring,
working or retired, men and
women to volunteer 1-6 hours a
week to help someone in need.  
Regency Hospice covers all
areas of Horry County including
your own backyard.  Regency is
reaching out to our communities
with care and compassion.  
Hospice is about living – about
quality of life.  Our care team
addresses several areas of
need with individuals and
families and a very important
role in meeting these needs
involves our dedicated
volunteers.  Volunteers can help
in many ways, including
providing companionship,
listening, giving hugs, playing
table games or cards, reading,
assisting with errands, praying
with the individual or just
laughing and smiling with
someone.  All of this happens
“When Life Matters Most.”
Please call Jenny at 843-651-
2335 for more information on
how to get involved.
