I am wanting to start up a volunteer program at our community based aged care organisation. I am looking for people opinions on how to go about advertising this? Do you ask you volunteers to commit to a specific day? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I have just embarked on starting up a volunteers program. This handbook is a great idea and I will be adapting it for our home. So far i have volunteers coming in with their pets, a donkey, classic cars, poetry readings, singing, telling stories and just having chats... wonderful:)

Dear Golden Carers, I have read your Volunteers Handbook and think it is great. I have set up a Volunteer hand book at our facility and would like to suggest you include a Confidentality Aggreement that is signed by the Volunteer and witnessed and is kept on file with the Police Check document. I also included a copy of Residents Rights for the Volunteers to read and keep. Regards Sue
