    Meals on Wheels Delivery Driver

    Description:

    The Meals on Wheels program provides older adults and adults with different abilities (who for various reasons are unable to cook their own meals) with nutritious, hot and/or frozen meals. Meals are delivered by volunteers over the lunch hour, while also providing a short friendly chat and a check on their wellbeing; enabling our clients in Waterloo Region to live at home with independence and dignity.

    Tasks:

    During a Meals on Wheels delivery shift, volunteers will:

    • Deliver hot and/or frozen meals to clients as per the order given on the route sheets (approximately 7-13 clients, varying on the day and service demand)
    • Carry out brief security check and provide social contact to clients
    • Report any undelivered meals or absent clients to the office
    • Report any concerns you may have about clients to the office
    • Treat all information regarding clients on your route with complete confidentiality

    Needs:

    Currently there in extra need for spare volunteers with a flexible schedule
