Volunteering in our aged care and community aged care services

We at UnitingCare Ageing greatly value the many ways in which our team of volunteers contribute and enhance the aged care experience and well-being of our residents and community aged care clients.nicki_volunteers

Volunteers are one of the special things that the not-for-profit sector offers in aged care and community aged care services. We endeavour to ensure that our volunteers’ interactions and contributions are ones that bring mutual enjoyment and satisfaction for all concerned.

Volunteering provides an opportunity to meet new people and form new relationships, become part of a team, but most importantly make a difference in the lives of our elderly residents and clients. For as little as an hour a week, your gift of time can make a difference to someone’s life, as well as your own.

The process of enrolling to become a volunteer at UnitingCare Ageing is designed to ensure that each volunteer is treated individually and provided with choices. You will also be provided with training and ongoing support through our Volunteer Program. To ensure the safety of all those in our care, all volunteers are required to undergo a police check before commencing.

Help from volunteers can come in a number of different forms depending on the amount of time you can spare and the skills you possess.  Volunteers can be involved at our residential aged care facilities, community aged care services or our day centre programs.
