Mission Statement
Caregiver Volunteers is on a mission to connect homebound seniors to caring and compassionate volunteers who will provide a variety of services from medical transportation to friendly visiting. Our program allows seniors to stay at home while we work to reduce senior social isolation within Monmouth and Ocean counties.
Description
Our programs are socialization-based which means that we do not provide medical assistance or care, but our programs work to reduce senior social isolation and bring care and compassion into the lives of homebound seniors. Our services include, but are not limited to, reassuring phone calls, medical transportation, grocery shopping, help with fundraisers, respite care for those with chronic illnesses and their caregivers, Alzheimer's respite care for those living with dementia or Alzheimer's and their caregivers, help with paperwork and more! We help a large number of Latino/a/x senior citizens and are always in need of bilingual volunteers. These vital services are provided by our growing number of volunteers in Monmouth and Ocean County, New Jersey.
