    Description

    Wellness and Shower Program Support

    The Shower Assistant aids in administering one of the most vital services for Rose Haven's guests: a private, long shower. Monday through Friday, visitors have access to showers from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM.

    You and a member of the staff will work together to keep the showers and other facilities clean for our guests. There are three private showers and three vanities for guests to use. You will provide guests with freshly cleaned towels, washcloths, bath mats, shampoo, conditioner, and other shower supplies at guests' request. After each use, the showers are to be disinfected by spraying the surfaces and then wiping the touch sites with a medical-grade disinfectant that has been allowed to dry. Only female-identified volunteers may volunteer for this position.

    The wellness desk is where guests can get hygiene supplies and beauty products. Guests can also sign up for Rose Haven's wellness classes and activities. This program allows guests to connect over something other than the challenging circumstances that bring them to the shelter. These activities help empower our guests by giving them opportunities to learn, be creative, heal, and socialize.

    We are following COVID-19 mask safety protocols inside Rose Haven. We ask volunteers to wear gloves when working in the shower area.

    1 shift available:

    • We have available shifts Monday-Friday: 08:45 to 12:15 PST
