Purpose: This study was to investigate the satisfaction for voluntary activity and the meaning of life in hospice volunteers.
Method: Data were obtained by self-reported questionnaire from 102 volunteers and were analyzed using a t-test, ANOVA and Pearson’s correlation.
Result: The mean score of the satisfaction for hospice volunteer activity was 2.48±0.38. Of the domains of the satisfaction, the experience domain had the highest mean score (2.93±0.53), and the social exchange domain had the lowest mean score (1.65±0.63). The mean score of the meaning of life was 3.20±0.33. The score of satisfaction was significantly different by economic status, and volunteering time per week. The score of meaning of life was statically different by financial status. There was a positive correlation between satisfaction for voluntary activity and the meaning of life.
Conclusion: Satisfaction for hospice volunteer activity was significantly related to their meaning of life. In order to increase the satisfaction of volunteers, it is important to consider their financial aspect and the volunteering time.
