St George Careers Development Centre - Community Visitors Scheme

Visits

The Community Visitors Scheme is a Federal Government initiative to help establish links between people living in an aged care facility and their local community. The objective of the Scheme is to improve the quality of life of residents of aged care facilities who have limited family and social contact and may be at risk of isolation from the general community for social or cultural reasons or through disability. A community visitor befriends a resident of a facility who has been identified by the facility, as being at risk of isolation.
