      • Providing emotional support to caregivers who may need someone to talk to
      • Sharing kindness, calm, and compassion through regular check‑ins

    No medical advice or counseling is provided—just genuine human connection.

      • Comfortable talking on the phone and actively listening
      • Patient, empathetic, and respectful of diverse backgrounds
      • Able to maintain confidentiality and professional boundaries
