Community Visitors - Baranduda

The Centre for Continuing Education
Logo for The Centre for Continuing Education

The Community Visitors Scheme volunteers provide friendship and companionship to isolated members of our community.

Be matched on a one-to-one basis with a resident with similar interests, provide a link with the community, share interests and hobbies, and show a genuine interest in the person. It’s about making a resident feel valued and cared for by connecting them to the community through conversation on a regular basis (an hour a fortnight).

The program matches volunteers with recipients of a Home Care Package (including wait-listed) or in subsidised aged care homes.

This position is flexible as you can coordinate visiting times to suit you and your resident.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer contact us and we will send an information pack, which will include application forms. As part of your application we will then complete a police check on your behalf. Initial orientation to the aged care environment, or home, ongoing communication and support is then provided.

You can not apply for this role as it is no longer available.
