With just a few hours a week you could make a huge impact at a fragile time in someone's life. Providing caregiver respite allows a break for a loved one to do grocery shopping, go to doctor appointments, get a hair cut or even go out to eat while knowing their loved one is safe. As a caregiver one must also take care of themselves so they can be their best! Volunteers are not asked to complete anything medical or handle medications. Looking to cover either Monroeville areas or Penn Hills. Our office is located in Scottdale but no need to travel to our office.
