- at mealtimes – (need to complete training for this)
- by accompanying patients to facilities in the hospital
- by running errands for patients whose mobility is restricted
- Completing surveys
Volunteers will be organised on a rota basis to cover the hours of 10am to 4pm.
Days to cover: Monday, Tuesday and Friday
