Job Description:

Brighten someone's day! Be a friend and companion for an older person. Do you want to give back to your community? Becoming an Aged Care Volunteer is incredibly rewarding! The Aged Care Volunteer Visitor Scheme (ACVVS) is a government funded program aiming to reduce loneliness and increase social support and connectedness of older people in our community. Older people are particularly vulnerable to becoming socially isolated, especially if they don't have any family around. Our volunteers play an important part in keeping them connected with regular visits. For as little as one hour per fortnight you can make a world of difference to someone's life. Our recipients come from many different backgrounds and enjoy many different activities. We carefully match you with someone in the same area with similar interests and backgrounds. The program gives you back what you put into it, and both our volunteer visitors and recipients report an increased sense of fulfilment, happiness, and community connectivity.

Job Responsibility:

  • Provide regular contact to a local socially isolated older person who lives in a residential aged care facility or who receives a Home Care Package enabling them to keep living at home
  • Commit at least one hour per fortnight, for at least 6 months, to providing companionship and friendship for an older person
  • Face-to-face visits are always preferred but if this is impractical, we support other communication methods
  • Visits are customised between the volunteer visitor and the older person, may include conversation, listening to music, walks, gardening, games, theatre, or more

Requirements:

  • Must be over 18 years of age
  • During your orientation, you will need to undergo a National Police Check, which is conducted and paid for by us
What we offer:
  • Based on your location, interests and preferences, we will match you with a suitable isolated older person
  • Orientation, induction and insurance covers all information and resources needed
  • Personalised, ongoing support from ACVVS Project Officer
  • Recognition, rewards and special events
  • Access to ongoing training opportunities
