SeniorServ is looking for a friendly visitor and helper for a senior in Garden Grove who recently had a fall and has limited use of her left arm until it heals. As a friendly visitor, you visit in the home of the older adult and offer conversation, friendship, and understanding. As a heper, you may be asked to do some light housekeeping, laundry and meal preparation. A commitment of one to two hours per week is all that is expected, which may not seem like a lot, but it will mean the world to this senior. This senior is used to being active and is frustrated not to be able to do everything for herself. This position is temporary, as her doctor expects a full recovery in six weeks, but may continue on as strictly conversation visits in the future.
As a volunteer you will be a part of SeniorServ, who provides services for over 1,000 homebound seniors in Orange County, to help seniors remain as independent as possible. SeniorServ's mission is to nourish the wellness, purpose, and dignity of seniors and their families in our community. The Friendly Visitor Program is an important part of that mission. Will you use your abilities and your kindness to help? If you will, please contact us.
