Volunteering Overview
Why Volunteer at Hearts & Minds Inc.?
Since our founding in 1994, we have been dedicated to creating an environment where residents can participate in daily activities and integrate into their community.
Volunteers play a crucial role in this process, providing companionship, assistance with daily living skills, and helping our residents build the confidence they need to thrive.
Whether you're assisting with activities of daily living (ADLs) or supporting residents in more complex instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs), your involvement will help enhance their quality of life.
Volunteers make a difference by fostering independence, promoting social interaction, and encouraging skill-building—all in a compassionate and supportive setting.
What We Do?
At Hearts & Minds Inc., we offer structured services and supports that assist residents with both ADLs and IADLs:
- Activities of Daily Living (ADLs): These essential tasks include personal care activities such as dressing, toilet hygiene, bathing, grooming, functional mobility, and eating. As a volunteer, you may help residents with these tasks, promoting their independence and dignity.
- Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs): These more complex tasks include meal preparation, health maintenance, community mobility, shopping, home management, and care of others and pets. Volunteers can assist in teaching and reinforcing these skills, empowering residents to navigate everyday life with greater autonomy.
