About the volunteering opportunity
Strolling and shopping is unfortunately difficult or impossible for older people - often confined to a wheelchair. On Tuesdays, we make this shopping experience possible in our nursing home in Pankow. The senior citizens are very happy about this and we are looking for volunteers to support our staff on site.
The "Dr. Günter Hesse" nursing home offers 80 residents with care grades I to V a home in Pankow. The residents feel comfortable and secure here, and our long-standing staff contribute to this every day. They are supported by many volunteers who like to come to the home regularly. This means you are not alone in volunteering and can talk to other volunteers and the contact person on site. In addition, the Unionhilfswerk volunteer team is always available and offers free courses and training in the area of volunteering for/with older people.
The facility is a 3-minute walk from the streetcar stop Pankower Straße (M50) and therefore easily accessible, as well as from the bus stop Grumbkowstraße/Pankower Straße (150,250). You can find more information about the facility under "Pflegewohnheim "Dr. Günter Hesse"" - Unionhilfswerk.
