Volunteering in Nursing Homes
According to the National Center for Health Statistics,“Over 50% of those living in nursing homes do not have close relatives and 46% have no living children.”
Life in a nursing home is lonely,confusing,and frightening for many residents.Volunteering at a nursing home is a great opportunity to make a difference in someone else’s life.Playing cards,sitting with and talking to a resident,taking a walk,or sharing a meal makes a huge difference,especially when they have no other sole on earth to visit them.
The three examples above are only a small fraction of institutions in which volunteers are needed.Giving of oneself,especially during the holidays blesses and cheers others.
