Volunteer Opportunities
The Argyle Manor is a 57-bed long-term care facility serving the elderly who need intermediate nursing care. Our Assisted Living is 109 room facility serving elderly who need intermediate care. Volunteers are needed in the following areas:
- 1:1 Visitor/Senior Companion
Many of our seniors would like to have more personal visitors. As a senior companion you can be matched with one or more residents with whom you can have informal social visits or do things of common interest. You can also read to them, help with letter writing, take on walks, or just visiting. This is a Bi-monthly commitment. - Activity Group Leader
The Argyle is always happy to have activity groups organized by volunteers. Programs can be during the day, evenings, or weekends. Activities to be conducted could be cards, games, ice cream socials, Bible Studies, current events, music programs, arts and crafts, cooking class, etc. This is a monthly commitment. - Bingo Coordinator
The bingo coordinator is in charge of running the weekly bingo games, which includes set-up, play and clean up. This is a weekly or Bi-monthly commitment. - Activity Aides
The activity department is always grateful for volunteer assistants to help with scheduled group activities (see monthly activity schedule). Aides are often needed for extra chaperones on bus outings. Aides can also help with special events, such as: Birthday parties, holiday parties, family barbecues, etc. Volunteers are always needed for the special events to run smoothly. - Pet Visitors
Many of our residents enjoy the company of visiting pets. Your pet (dog, cat, rabbit, etc.) is welcome in our home as long as he/she is friendly, well behaved, has the appropriate shots, and is supervised by you. This is a monthly commitment.
Whatever your time or talents, volunteers can contribute much to enhance the quality of life for our residents here at The Argyle. Please, fill out this online volunteer form or contact Heather Lloyd, Activity Director at 303-455-9513 to discuss volunteer opportunities.
