Covid 19 Protocol practiced by the Athena Institute Pre-Med Hospice Volunteer Program

Student and patient safety continue to be priority one! Due to COVID 19, Hospices, universities, colleges, and care facilities are limiting student volunteer interaction with patients to insure the safety of patients, students and their communities. Only if expressly allowed by their college or university, a limited number of students may be permitted to visit some patients in-person. Presently, many Pre-Med students are completing remote training.

The overall mission of the Program has been to instill in pre-med students a sense of humanity and understanding towards the geriatric patient and 'end-of-life' care through hospice service... and to provide patients an opportunity to educate these young students in how to listen to their needs." --Dr. Cutler
