-We drive patients to doctors and hospitals: Volunteers support patients in times of need. Patients who use this service feel a sense of independence. They feel less anxious about the trip and their treatment. Many doctors have reported that their patients arrive on time and with a relaxed disposition.
	-We visit patients in hospitals. Volunteers are of upmost importance in the hospital system today. They assist with patients’ needs, allowing the doctors and nurses to provide necessary medical attention without distraction.
-We visit the home bound. Bikur Cholim is the Hebrew term for visiting the sick. People who feel needy, ill, or isolayed enjoy a visit from a bikur cholim volunteer. This allows the homebound to maintain a connection with the outside world.
	-We visit nursing homes. Volunteers and residents forge a special bond through frequent visits. This helps the residents feel less isolated.
