Entertainers and their Assistants

Provide music, theatre, dance, etc. entertainment for residents and patients to enhance quality of life.  This can be in a stand alone performance (e.g. entertainment evening every third Wednesday of the month), or it can be in conjunction with other activities (e.g. musical background during mealtimes in Long Term Care).  If the entertainment requires other workers in addition to the performers, they are included in this category.

Times and length of shifts are variable dependent on the availability of the volunteers and the scheduling in the department or area where the entertainment will happen.
