Visits can be spent doing activities such as reading a book, go for a short walk , chat and reminisce or watch a TV program together.
Sharing your time and interests with the client will help enhance their mental, physical and emotional wellbeing.
You will be matched to the client keeping in mind your interests and convenience so you can enjoy the volunteer visitations as much as the client does and the relationship is both positive and rewarding.
