🇨🇿 ESC Volunteering in Czechia 👵 Supporting Elderly Residents at a Care Home 💛

Description

Join us in Komorní Lhotka and become a volunteer at Sarepta, a home for elderly individuals aged 65 and above. Our mission is to provide residential services to seniors who need assistance due to their health and social circumstances. Our dedicated staff supports residents, ensuring that each person can live with dignity and contentment. We also encourage residents to maintain as much self-sufficiency as possible in their daily activities. As a volunteer, your primary role will involve assisting residents with their daily routines. This includes activities typical of an elderly person's day at home, such as getting up, personal hygiene, breakfast, morning programs, lunch, afternoon activities, dinner, evening hygiene, and bedtime. You will also support residents during activation activities, physical exercises, breathing exercises, and engage them in memory and musical activities.
