Community Visitors Scheme - NSW Liaison Officer

About Community Visitors Scheme - NSW Liaison Officer

Volunteers are matched to a local aged care facility resident who is socially isolated, ensuring compatibility in personality, interests and background. Visits usually occur weekly or fortnightly. Visitors receive training and ongoing support. The NSW Liaison Officer for the Community Visitor Scheme provides information and assistance about the program. This service is funded by the Dept of Health and Ageing.
