You can make an important difference in the life of an older adult in Santa Fe. Spending a few hours a week or month, lending a hand with simple chores or just being a companion is often all it takes to give an older adult a sense of comfort and security. Coming Home Connection is looking for volunteer caregivers to help provide in-home care to older adults and others in need of care, support and companionship. We screen and match clients and caregivers. Background checks, orientation and training are required. For more information please call 505-988-2468. We look forward to having you join our community of caring professionals and volunteers, helping our friends and neighbors remain in their homes in comfort and safety.
COVID-19 considerations: All caregivers must wear masks when working in the home. It is our clients’ preference that you are vaccinated.
