Friendly Visiting

Our Friendly Visiting programs is a volunteer-based program where a volunteer is matched with an older adult (65+) to provide either in-person visits and/or phone chats. Social isolation and loneliness increase the risk for a variety of physical and mental conditions which inevitably leads to unnecessary hospitalizations or pre-mature admission into long-term care. With our friendly visiting program, we carefully match our clients to a volunteer that share similar interests. Our volunteers are kind, caring and compassionate individuals that understand the benefits of human connection and keeping our clients happy in their home.

Are you an older adult (65+), experiencing social isolation? If so, our Friendly Visiting program may be what you’ve been needing to make you feel connected.

  • Visits may include going for a walk, chatting, coffee, games, etc
  • Promotes socialization and the creation of new friendships
  • Helps alleviate loneliness and reduce depression
  • Ensures regularly scheduled visits and/or phone chats
