We have a need for volunteers from time to time to work with low functioning readers, or English as a Second Language, or occassionally there is an opportunity to work as a private math tutor.

Caris Healthcare has ongoing opportunities for patient volunteers,
administrative volunteers, and special events volunteers.  Patient
volunteers sit with hospice patients in nursing homes to provide
companionship or in their homes to provide companionship and caregiver
respite.  To become a patient volunteer, there is a 4 hour training
course (lunch is provided) and a drug screen and TB skin test (no cost
to the volunteer).  Administrative and special events volunteers, who do
not have direct patient contact, do not need to go through the training,
but can help in our office or with making cards, crafts, and sewing
projects for patients.

For more information, please contact Cindy McDaniel at (865) 988-8034 or
email cmcdaniel@carishealthcare.com.  Training classes are ongoing and
can be scheduled around work or school.  Volunteers must be at least 16
years old and be a licensed driver.  Volunteers set their own schedules.
No amount of volunteering is too little, and all is appreciated.
