Program Description:

Building strong social connections is vital for overall health, particularly as we age. The Aged Care Volunteer Visitors Scheme (ACVVS) and Volunteer Visitors program aim to assist older Australians residing in aged care facilities or their own homes who may be experiencing loneliness or social isolation. Volunteers are paired with older individuals, either individually or in small groups, to foster friendship and companionship, enhancing their wellbeing and social interaction.

As a visiting volunteer, you will conduct regular social visits to an older person in your community at a mutually agreed time. Together, you may engage in pleasant conversations, reminisce over a cup of tea, or participate in shared activities such as playing cards or board games.

Role Requirements:

This position requires strong conversational skills and the ability to connect with a diverse range of older individuals, including those with various backgrounds, experiences, and abilities.

All volunteers must complete a National Criminal Check. The Australian Red Cross will provide training, ongoing support, and access to additional opportunities within a globally recognized humanitarian network.

Volunteer Impact:

As a visiting volunteer, you will significantly enhance the life of an older individual facing loneliness by providing companionship and social interaction. You will have the chance to learn from their unique experiences and share your own, creating a mutually enriching relationship. In addition to the fulfillment of giving back, you will also gain a friend.

You will be part of the Australian Red Cross Aged & Community Care team, dedicated to supporting older and vulnerable individuals across Australia through various volunteer-driven initiatives.

Application Process:

For this role, a National Police Check is required, organized through the Australian Red Cross.

Additional Information:

For further details about this opportunity, please reach out to the Aged & Community Care Workforce Team.

Thank you for considering a volunteering role with the Australian Red Cross. We are committed to fostering a safe and inclusive environment centered on wellbeing. We celebrate diversity and welcome individuals from all backgrounds, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, as well as those with varied experiences, abilities, genders, ethnicities, ages, and sexual orientations. We uphold a child-safe policy with zero tolerance for harm to children. Our vision is to be recognized as the leading humanitarian organization making a genuine difference in the lives of individuals and communities.
