Hi - I'm trying to figure out what kinds of services eldercare volunteers provide. My 87 year old mother who lives by herself is going through a course of medicine for depression and we trust it will eventually help her get back to her old self. In the meantime she is alone at various times of the week when family members can't visit her. She could use several kinds of help: the simplest might be someone to come and help her with lunch and be with her for an hour or so for company. Or, it also might help for someone to take her to and from physio therapy (15 minutes from her house). i look forward to your response.
