Give Back to Local Seniors
Volunteering at a nursing home can be a rewarding experience for those who enjoy working with seniors. By donating your time, you can help provide companionship and form meaningful connections.
Whether you’re interested in leading a reading group, playing music, assisting with activities, donating items, or simply chatting with residents one on one, your presence can make a world of difference.
Join us in our efforts to enhance the quality of life for seniors in our community by volunteering at our nursing home today.
Volunteer Requirements
Volunteering for a nursing home has many benefits, including the opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of elderly residents, gain valuable experience working with older adults, and develop meaningful relationships with both residents and staff.
In addition to possessing a positive attitude and an interest in working with seniors, Rockingham County volunteers must meet the following requirements:
- Be at least 16 years of age
- Undergo a background check and TB test
- Complete our volunteer orientation
Once you complete our orientation, you’re welcome to create your own schedule and volunteer at your convenience.
