Companion volunteer training offered




The gift of your friendship can mean a lot for those on the journey of aging or serious illness — just someone to hear their stories, be with them or remind them of their significance. Care Partners Volunteers provide companionship in the client’s home, at the Care Center, or the hospital. Volunteers provide ongoing friendly visits, a compassionate presence at end-of-life, phone check-ins, or caregiver respite — each volunteer finds his own niche.

Care Partners Volunteer Training will be held Thursday, Jan. 25 from 4:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday, Jan. 27 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Meals and snacks provided.
