Senior Companion Program
Senior Companions are volunteers age 55 and over who make a difference by providing assistance and friendship to adults who have difficulty with daily living tasks, such as shopping or paying bills. We help these adults remain independent in their homes instead of having to move to more costly institutional care. Senior Companions give families or professional caregivers a much-needed time off from their duties, run errands, and often provide friendship for their clients. Volunteers receive pre-service orientation, training from the organization where they serve, supplemental insurance while on duty, and may qualify to earn a tax-free hourly stipend by working 15-40 hours weekly. The Council of the Southern Mountains operates the largest Senior Companion Station in West Virginia.
For information about becoming a Senior Companion, contact Gail Churchwell at the CSM Bluefield Office at 304-327-5305.
