The VIP Connection is Salter HealthCare’s new program that invites volunteers to spend time with and improve the quality of life for our patients and guests. Anyone can become a VIP – from local high school and college students looking to fulfill a course requirement to part-time professionals who simply enjoy giving back to the community.
What Would I Be Doing?
Since our dedicated staff is typically very busy, we can use help in many ways. Examples of how you can help include:
- Cooking demonstrations
- Managing a book club
- Sharing a musical talent
- Gardening
- Assisting with special events
- Friendly visits with patients and guests
- Administrative help
- Pet visits
Why Should I Get Involved?
Again, these are just some of the many ways in which you can get involved. We are always looking for extra help in order to lighten the workload of the hard-working individuals serving all three of our locations. Although something as simple as playing a board game with one of our guests may not seem like the most impactful activity, it could mean everything to them.
Not only does getting involved in the VIP Connection program enrich the lives of our guests and patients, but it also exposes volunteers to people with different life experiences and points-of-view. Our volunteers often find that getting involved is mutually rewarding.
