Independence, client autonomy and aging in place are promoted within a stable and safe housing environment. This program is designed to prevent premature admission to a home for the aged or nursing home by providing support, supervision and direct services to seniors who require the services offered at a home for the aged but do not need live-in accommodation. 3C6 Homes for the aged volunteers Toronto's Homes for the Aged Division has long recognized the valuable and unique contributions made by volunteers, who enrich the lives of our residents and contribute to the overall effectiveness of our homes. The homes offer a wide range of volunteer activities. Each volunteer has an individual reason for getting involved.
Some volunteers wish to explore a possible career in the health care field.
Others simply want to share their time. However, the common thread for every volunteer is a wish for personal fulfillment through helping our residents. Working with others is an enjoyable way to improve interpersonal skills. Involvement is based on your lifestyle. A strong wish to help the residents and some time to spare.
