    Description

    Often our seniors and their loved ones feel overwhelming sadness and isolation due to health problems and care-giving responsibilities.

    Friendly visits are essential in reminding our patients they are not alone and never forgotten. Your gift of time and presence is a gift to both our patients and their loved ones.

    We are looking for volunteers to spend quality time with a patient and give their elderly caregivers & loved ones a break to rest, relax, or run that much needed errand.

    Volunteers are needed 1-2x month to provide friendship and companionship to a patient and respite and relaxation for their loved one and primary caregiver.

    Flexible scheduling is available.

    Location

    On-site
    Greenville, South Carolina, US
