Serving Seniors at A.G. Rhodes Health & Rehab
If you’ve been fortunate enough to spend quality time with someone who’s older than you, you understand that nothing compares to the wisdom, strength of spirit and unique stories you’ll experience when you’re around senior adults. By volunteering with A.G. Rhodes Health & Rehab, you’ll have the opportunity to give back to your community and the seniors who’ve contributed so much to our lives.
Whether it’s visiting one-on-one with residents or participating in group activities, you’ll find that we offer many volunteer opportunities that will make a lasting difference in your life - and in the lives of those we serve. Volunteers are needed to visit with residents, help with activities (BINGO, arts & crafts, etc.), support music therapy and horticultural therapy classes, bring in their pets and provide any other enrichment activities that would brighten a seniors’ day.
