Prince Albert - Victoria Hospital and Herb Bassett Home - Youth in Action Volunteer (Ages 14-17)
Note: Volunteer spaces for this year's 2025-2026 program are full. Any applications received will be placed on a waitlist for the 2026-2027 year and you will be contacted in the fall.
The Youth-in-Action Ambassador assists with various activities at the site. They encourage client's participation in activities.
They are the extra pair of "helping hands" that add to the trained services of the Long-term care facility staff, working together to enhance the lives of residents.
Youth Volunteers provide an intergenerational contact between youth and the elderly. The program supports the ongoing personal development of youth volunteers as they learn to become comfortable and responsible for their volunteer duties in a long term care/ acute care setting. It is an opportunity to allow youth to develop an interest in the health care field while assisting the long term care / acute care employees and to experience first hand the different health care roles for future consideration.
This volunteer program runs from November - May (dates subject to change)
Shifts are Monday - Thursday 4:00 pm - 6:00 p.m.
