The Eskaton Telephone Reassurance program is currently recruiting volunteers for the following positions:
Daily Phone Calls
TLC’s volunteers place calls seven days a week, year around, to hundreds of older adults who live alone and want to remain in their own homes. Calls can be made from the Eskaton Telephone Reassurance office or from the comfort of your own home. These calls are not just to check on their well-being, but also to socialize. This daily contact can help eliminate the worries of seniors living alone who don’t have regular contact with someone who knows them and their daily routine.
Home Visits
Eskaton Telephone Reassurance home visiting volunteers provide companionship to seniors who live alone. Our social services staff matches visitors to seniors by common interests and geographic area. The most important aspect of this program is the warmth and companionship it fosters between an older adult and the volunteer. It may even encourage a senior to seek other social opportunities.
Office Opportunities
If you’d enjoy spending time in our office with our friendly staff and want to utilize your administrative, clerical, organizational and creative talents we have several volunteer opportunities for you! Projects vary from special holiday projects, assembling packets, preparing mailings, filing and reception duties.
