New! Summer 2025
Make a difference right here in your hometown of Anderson and Iva!
Our Respite Care volunteers provide much needed relief, support, and comfort to a primary caregiver or spouse who is caring for their loved one with a life limiting illnesses. This allows the caregiver a much needed break while their loved one enjoys the comfort, security, and support of a loving volunteer.
Often family caregivers are on duty 24/7. This can be exhausting and sometimes emotionally and physically tolling. Respite volunteers provide the caregiver that much deserved time to recharge and find that balance needed to take care of themselves and their loved one.
Your gift of time and support is healing for all!
Volunteers are needed for 2 hours per shift 1-2 times a month to allow caregivers a opportunity to run errands, attend to selfcare and personal appointments, or simply a shopping trip, meal out, recreational or religious activity among friends.
Training will be provided.
(No hands on care is needed or provided by Respite Volunteers. Our nurses and care team are available 24/7 for support)
