Volunteers can play games, do crafts, and other activities with residents. Groups and individuals welcome, but must come during an activity night. No drop-in's, please. Volunteers are also needed in the nursing department, the housekeeping department, and the recreational department. They may also play the piano on Sundays.
Most patients are able to respond to and interact with visitors.
Volunteers can read to visitors, help with crafts, put on performances, and build relationships with residents. The program provides opportunities for students to perform at local hospitals and rest homes in many various ways. Volunteers can do different things, from vocal and instrumental music, to dance, dramatic readings, we've even had a juggler or two. While we would appreciate volunteers who willing to commit to a semester of work, there are no requirements for commitment. Volunteers can run errands, read books, write letters, and take patients out on activities as they are able.
