Going to the shop together

Humanitas • job opening nr. 14157

Interesting about this job

By taking some time out with the lady you will provide her with an enjoyable afternoon and also help her family immensely.

Job tasks and duties

The request from this elderly lady (68) and her family is actually quite simple: going to the shop or supermarket with a buddy, just a walk around the block, that's the main thing. Maybe a cup of coffee and a chat in the flat - although she is not much of a talker. Ms is mentally and physically frail, and comes across as older than she is. She has family around her who visit with regularity and do a lot for her. Still, it would give the family some peace of mind if a volunteer also visited from time to time, who has the time and attention to go out with this lady.

Job skills and qualities
