Volunteer with your pet at our Residential Aged Care Home, Waratah
2 weeks ago
The HammondCare Volunteer program is a great way for you to make a meaningful difference to the life of an older person, right here in Hunter NSW.
Bring along your good natured pet and spend time chatting with people living with dementia who may be frail and elderly at our residential aged care home in Waratah. You'll see what a difference your furry friend can make.
As you're bringing your pet into a care environment with frail and elderly residents or patients, we ask that your pet is:
Calm and gentle in nature
Up-to-date with vaccinations and treatment of worms and fleas
Nails should be short and blunt. Freshly cut nails can be sharp if not filed down.
Dogs should be kept on a lead always.
This role will suit you if you have a small-medium sized pet and you're happy to just to sit and not necessarily talk all the time.
Your impact
Volunteering as a social visitor can be a rewarding experience, both for the person you visit as well as yourself. Regular visits from volunteers can help to improve quality of life and help people feel less isolated.
HammondCare
HammondCare is an independent Christian charity and we're passionate about improving the quality of life for people in need. We have a wonderful group of volunteers that partner with us to enhance the lives of people cared for by HammondCare.
