St. Aloisius Senior Companions
Senior Companions take pride in serving with compassion and caring as friends. Part of the St. Aloisius Community Volunteer Programs, these volunteers are healthy older adults who help other adults live independently. They visit others in their home, providing socialization, checking on their well-being and helping with light household tasks. They alert the doctors and family member to potential health problems and provide short periods of relief to primary caregivers such as family members. Without the help of Senior Companions, many older adults would not be able to continue living at home. Senior Companions are over 60 years of age; can volunteer 20 hours a week or more; have a limited income; and love to help their neighbors. Senior Companions become part of a team of caregivers. To find out if you are eligible to join this team of caregivers, contact Tammy Neurohr at St. Aloisius Medical Center.
