Volunteering in our homes is a great fit for you if you have the ability to show Elders kindness, compassion, patience, love and respect. Your ability to listen and speak with Elders for a prolonged conversation, and develop close, genuine relationships is essential.

As a volunteer, you can help Elders enjoy a full, abundant life. You are an important part of our commitment to provide companionship, dignity, and fun in our homes, and to alleviate loneliness helplessness, and boredom.

We require adult volunteers to provide a satisfactory Criminal Records Check for the Vulnerable Sector. After you apply to volunteer with us, you will meet with Ruth Gosselin, Volunteer Coordinator. She will provide a letter of volunteer intent, to have the Criminal Records Check fee waived.

You are welcome to apply! University of Saskatchewan and Sask Polytechnic students interested in practicum or internship experiences may apply. For more information, contact Christy Norrish, Manager of Recreation, Volunteers, and Community Engagement.

There certainly are opportunities for Residents and family members. These include serving on the Resident and Family Councils at both Sherbrooke and Central Haven, plus  other opportunities around our homes.
