Aged Care Volunteer Visitors Scheme

• Do you enjoy a chat?
• Or are you keen to meet someone new and interesting in your community?
• Ever considered becoming a Volunteer Visitor?

We have opportunities for chatty and empathetic Volunteer Visitors, who are good listeners, and enjoy being with older people.

By volunteering as a Volunteer Visitor, you will provide friendship and conversation to socially isolated elderly individuals living either at home or in residential care.

If you have 1 hour per fortnight to connect, share and celebrate life experiences then consider volunteering as a Volunteer Visitor. We have multiple opportunities for people to join our team in the Adelaide Hills and Mount Barker regions.

The Aged Care Volunteer Visitors Scheme is an Australian Government funded program established to promote links between people living in an aged care home or in their own homes and the wider community.
