An opportunity for a self starter! Visit with one or more of our Senior Residents and learn first-hand what amazing people live in your midst! Most of them were leaders in their own field of endeavor and they are sure to surprise you no end.
Old does not mean dead or drab, old yells loud and clear that there is an abundance of life in age! When you think of an elderly person you, like most people think of boring, smelly, not very interesting, complaining, and a host of things that are just all in the past. Not so. You will be amazed if you allow yourself to get to know them. You will find it is a privilege to work with them and hear some of their stories of things they did with little or no training unlike todays society getting oriented to a new job. It is so amazing they did so much with so little!!
Never write off someone in a wheel chair. That chair does not define who or what that person is! It's just a means of getting around. The soul is still eternally young in the oldest of the old. Find out for yourself!

Description
St. Margaret Hall is a non-profit Nursing and Residential Care facility under the sponsorship of the Carmelite Sisters for the Aged and Infirm. Its interests, policies and practices are guided by principles of Christian charity in service to humanity and by values, teaching and philosophies of the Catholic Church and the Carmelite Sister for the Aged and Infirm. We have been here since 1963 and provide excellent care to the elderly. Volunteers help enhance the world of the facility beyond the walls, help with happy hour on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 4:30 p.m.
Conduct card games in the afternoon, read aloud to those with poor vision, Pastoral Care programs, giving out Holy Communion, and allowing people to go sit in the garden provided for their pleasure. There are so many ways Volunteers can add life to years and enjoy making new friends in the process. Volunteering is a two way street. You give your time and you get pleasure in giving to others!
