Caregiving is challenging and exhausting. Many caregivers are on their own with no family or friends to assist them or give them breaks. Volunteers provide once a week, two-hour breaks to caregivers in their homes by providing companionship to the client. Great care is taken to match volunteers and clients with similar interests or backgrounds making the experience enjoyable and rewarding for all.
This opportunity is part of the Citizens Who Care programs of Yolo Hospice/YoloCares.
