A senior in Loveland is looking for a Caring Companion to read to her and simply spend time with her. The two hours a week you'll spend together will be the best part of her week - and quite possibly yours, too! An added benefit is that her full time caregiver will appreciate a few hours of respite during your visits.
Caring Companion volunteers DO NOT provide personal care, lifting, or transferring, direct medical assistance or advice, housekeeping, meal preparation, transportation or case management. There is a waiting list for clients in Loveland, Fort Collins, and Wellington. Contact us now to start making a difference in the life of a local senior and her caregiver!
