Volunteering
Boquete Health & Hospice has various activities where we could greatly use your help. Our services are based on the medical needs of those residing in Boquete, Alto Boquete, Caldera and Potrerillos.
Your involvement can be minimal like making meals for the sick or more involved like caregiver relief if you wish. Once we receive your volunteer application, one of our members will contact you for an interview.
Training
As a valued volunteer for Boquete Health & Hospice you will be scheduled to attend a comprehensive three-day training where you will also learn
the various teams in order to help you narrow your choices. BHH is no longer requiring that all new class members be vaccinated, except members of certain teams who are in direct contact with patients and the public who MUST be vaccinated. The other teams do not have this restriction. This will help BHH continue to protect our volunteers, our patients and our community.
