Thanks for considering volunteering with Alacare! This opportunity is a great way to give back to people in the Cullman area. Our Caregiver Relief Volunteers are trained and are able to provide caregiver relief to patients caregivers. Our Caregiver Relief Volunteers give caregivers of our patients the opportunity to go run errands, go to the doctor, or other daily tasks that have become difficult due to the demand of being a caregiver at home.
We are seeking compassionate people who want to help families of those in the surrounding community. This volunteer will not be required to visit with patients by themselve until they are comfortable and feel they are up to the task.
