Partners In Care
Description
The Program
Partners in Care is a service credit exchange program designed to create community by linking frail elderly and disabled adults with neighbors who volunteer their time to help with occasional tasks and errands. The goal of these services is to help seniors and disabled adults remain independent in their own homes.
Participants may provide services, receive services, or both. For each hour of service donated by a volunteer, an hour of service credit is earned. That credit may be used by the individual at a later time or donated back to the program for others in need. Groups of volunteers are encouraged to collaborate efforts for larger projects.
Partners In Care are "informal caregivers" who provide non-medical services to community residents who need extra help. Volunteer services are matched to individual needs and may include grocery shopping, transportation, handyman help, yard work, or friendly visits. Volunteers are encouraged to utilize their individual talents, interests, and creativity as Partners in Care.
