Assisted living staff frequently take residents on outings, and need assistance helping them to get on and off the bus as well as accompanying them to lunch, on a shopping trip, or on a field trip to a baseball game or bowling, for example. These trips take place on weekdays, and require an individual to be 18 years of age or older and the physical ability to push a wheelchair.
If you would like to attend the next scheduled Volunteer Orientation, email nheim@bgf.org.

Description
Brooke Grove is a continuing care retirement community. We also serve as a rehabilitation center for those 50 and over who need short-term onsite rehab care until they are able to return to their home. We use volunteers to assist with leading games, crafts, providing entertainment, visiting with residents one on one, assisting in the dining areas and transporting residents to onsite appointments. Brooke Grove is a pet-friendly environment and pet visitors are also welcome. We offer a monthly (except December) orientation the last Tuesday of every month, 6:30 - 8pm for those interested in volunteer opportunities. Students who seek to earn SSL credits/hours are welcome: scheduling is very flexible - we can work around school, sports and other commitments.
