The Meadows- Personal Shopper Ambassador
Personal Shopper:
Volunteer will receive an items list from Meadows reception desk, along with the money needed for the purchase. Volunteer will go shopping for the requested items and return the items, list, receipts and outstanding money to Meadows reception. There is no interaction with the residents.
The Meadows provide things here but we do not provide things that are unique or individual to the person. Its hard to meet the unique demands of the residents and not all items they need are appropriate to be sold in the canteen. The volunteer supplies that extra pair of "Helping Hands" that add to the trained services of the long-term care facility staff.
Volunteers must have a drivers license, knowledge of how money works, knowledge of where products that are requested are for sale.
