A systematic volunteer management system is essential to enhance the effectiveness of volunteer participation in community end-of-life care. Unstructured volunteer participation, ineffective services, difficulties in keeping volunteers motivated and high volunteer turnover rates are common problems that can result from the absence of an effective and throughout volunteer management. To ensure high quality EoLC volunteer services, the Faculty of Social Sciences, the University of Hong Kong and four partners including the Haven of Hope Christian Service, the Hong Kong Society for Rehabilitation, the SKH Holy Carpenter Church, St James\u2019 Settlement collaboratively established a systematic volunteer management approach called SENS<\/strong> \u2013 (S<\/strong><\/span> \u2013 Stimulate a Shared Value; E<\/strong><\/span> \u2013 Enable a Collective Act; N<\/strong><\/span> \u2013 Nurture an Integrated Team; and S<\/strong><\/span> \u2013 Sustain a Companionate Community). Based on the SENS approach, relevant theories, tools and practice wisdoms in EoLC volunteer programme management will be shared in the volunteer coordinator training, from the stage of planning, coordinating, managing, to sustaining the volunteer programme.\n
