Compassionate Companions, AKA No Person Dies Alone Program

Compassionate Companions

What is it?

Compassionate Companions is a program that offers companionship and support to patients who are nearing the end of life. Compassionate Companions provides a dignified death to individuals who have no family or close friends to sit with them at the end of life. At Maui Health, deaths occur each year within the hospital. Through this program, we can provide witness to a person's life and compassion at their passing.

Why is program important?

We can provide companionship to patients in the dying process who are alone, and in doing so, provide a gift of respect and dignity to another human being at the end of life.

This volunteer opportunity is an 'on call' opportunity.  If a patient's family or close friend cannot be there, or is on the way but far away, a volunteer sits with the patient.  After on-boarding as a hospital volunteer, you will go through a special training.  You will be on a list to call when we are needed at the hospital to sit with a patient who is getting ready to pass.  We can just sit quietly, hold their hand if you feel comfortable, record any last words of thoughts to give to give family members or friends who could not be there.  We have some background music options to play if desired.  The hospital Chaplin is close by if needed.

Requirement is to sit up to 4 hours, then you can continue if needed or another volunteer will be called.  You can be called day or night and can tell the volunteer coordinator any times you are not available.

This is a most rewarding experience for a volunteer, and a comforting service for a person at life's end.

Give me a call at 808-280-4707 for more information or to get your on-boarding started.

Aloha, Barbara Potopowitz

Keālia Pond National Wildlife Refuge is known for its native Hawaiian Stilt and Coot nesting habitat. But there are areas of the refuge unseen by the public eye that are being restored to a Hawaiian dryland forest ecosystem, one of the most rare systems in the world. Our objective is to plant species that were once found in this area and to replace the previously establish, and invasive, Kiawe forests. The area was previously burned in 2019 by a brush fire that tore across the valley towards Kihei, narrowly missing our visitor center. The fire was a blessing in disguise as it gave us the opportunity to remove the Kiawe, replant native species, and reintroduce an almost extinct ecosystem. Working conditions are in hot and buggy areas of the Refuge with minimal shade. Come join us in this unique opportunity! 

Important Gear:

The area is slightly rugged as we are required to walk over mulched Kiawe. The fields of this mulch often times still have the long thorns of the Kiawe tree still in them and can cause harm if not properly equipped.

Every day, seven people die in home fires, most often in homes without working smoke alarms. That’s why the American Red Cross launched our Home Fire Campaign in 2014 to save lives.

The Maui County Composite of the Civil Air Patrol is looking for those interested in youth services to volunteer for our amazing organization!  We are a federally-chartered (like the Peace Corps) non-profit organization that specializes in Cadet (Youth) Programs, Emergency Services, and Aerospace Education!

Our World-class Youth program is designed for individuals aged 12-18 and teaches them our core values of Integrity, Respect, Excellence, and Volunteer service through classes and training in Leadership, Character Development, Aerospace Education, Physical Fitness, Emergency Services, and Volunteerism.  We do this through a proven system borrowed from the United States Air Force using military ranks and progressions to move youths from followers, to group leaders, and to eventually entire squadron leadership.  Our highest level of achievement meets the same standards as entry requirements into the United States Air Force Academy and can prepare young people in seeking their goals whether or not they have military ambitions.  

We also have programs to allow those young men and women interested in any field of Aerospace from pilots to engineers and even information technology (cyber) and STEM as Civil Air Patrol has several award winning curricula in those fields ranging from elementary school to it's own high school textbook through generous funding and support of the Federal Government.  It is the Civil Air Patrol's goal to develop and provide curricula to any and all educators as a free service to support the advancement of Aerospace and STEM in America's classrooms, going so far as providing millions of dollars in free STEM kits to educators every year.

For educators, we provide an AEM program that allows you to access those STEM kits and curricula at any time and we even provide a TOP (Teach Orientation Program) flight in our aircraft so that you can share the joys of flying with your students and get them more interested in Aerospace and STEM. 

In addition to all these great programs, for adult volunteers, we offer our extensive CAP University adult training program in which you can learn and train in a wide variety of disciplines including Emergency Services (FEMA training, Aircrew Training, Ground Crew Training, etc),  Communications, Leadership, Public Relations, Safety, Logistics, Operations, Finance, and many more!  This is all included as a member of our organization.  Those trained in certain disciplines can also be eligible to help our local and state government in providing needed services during, before, and after critical emergencies.

For more information on these great opportunities, please feel free to contact us at any time!

Civil Air Patrol is looking for pilots interested in learning how to fly emergency missions for our organization, or would like to learn how to train our youth to become the aviation pioneers of tomorrow!  We do everything from Hurricane and Tsunami warnings, teacher and cadet orientation flights, transporting critical supplies, search and rescue and Air Force interception training missions!  We offer our members subsidized rates on our fleet of Cessna 182 and 172 aircraft, among the newest and modern in Hawaii.  We even provide training to keep you mission capable!  If you're looking to fly more or fly again, and want to help out your local community, there's no better way as a pilot than to join the Civil Air Patrol!

Examples of recent missions include transporting Personal Protection Equipment, Aerial Photography, Electronic Locator Transmitter triangulation, Hurricane warnings, post disaster aerial photography, and even being simulated targets for our fabulous Hawaii F-22s!'

We're also ALWAYS looking for adults that want to learn all aspects of Emergency Services, Aerospace Education, or just want to get involved in our world-class cadet (youth) program!  If you're interested in any of these things, drop us a line so we can tell you about all the great things our organization does with the help of the United States Air Force and the Federal and State Governments.  We provide an inexpensive means for government agencies and non-profits to engage in these emergency services are a fraction of the cost of other emergency services organizations because all of our members our volunteers!
