About the volunteering opportunity

In the "home care" project, we place volunteer helpers with senior citizens. The aim is to counteract the loneliness and isolation of older people in the district. Our volunteers spend 1 - 3 hours with "their" senior citizens once a week. 

Your Tasks

The tasks are agreed individually with them and the older person. This often involves accompanying them shopping, going for a walk, chatting and spending time together.

What's needed

For this volunteering opportunity, advanced German skills are required.
Before the commitment begins, we offer training on all relevant topics (maintaining boundaries, dealing with age-related issues, behavior in other people's homes, how to protect yourself, age-related illnesses, etc.). In addition to attending the training, it is helpful to be patient, sensitive and humorous.

Time required

Regularly
Approx. 2 hours per week.
The time frame is agreed according to the possibilities and needs of the helper and the person seeking help. As a rule, we agree on a weekly meeting of approx. 2 hours.

Important notice

Volunteers receive an expense allowance for their work in the project.
