We are looking for caring, respectful individuals who are passionate about the health of older adults to support seniors who are registered in the Better at Home program.

    Tri-Cities Better at Home program helps seniors with simple day-to-day tasks so that they can continue to live independently in their own homes and remain connected to their communities. Better at Home offers the following non-medical services: light housekeeping, grocery shopping, friendly visiting, transportation to medical appointment, minor home repair and food support.

    We would like to connect with you.

    Friendly Visiting Volunteers

    The Tri Cities Better at Home Program requires volunteers for Friendly Home Visiting Services or regular Phone Visits. Friendly Visiting Services for seniors are aimed at reducing the social isolation experienced by older adults. This does not involve personal home care or driving clients.

    Food Support Service

    The Tri Cities Better at Home Program requires volunteers for the Food Support services.

    Due to physical limitations of our registered seniors, volunteers support seniors with delivering food hampers to their homes. Volunteers pick up the food hampers from SHARE Food Bank in Port Moody and deliver to our seniors in the Tri Cities.

    Grocery Shoppers

    The Tri Cities Better at Home Program requires volunteers for the Grocery Shopping service.

    Volunteers assist our registered seniors by taking their grocery order by phone or email and process the order with our registered grocery store. Another option is the in-person shopping; volunteers pick up our registered seniors and take them to the grocery stores in Tri-Cities for shopping. In-person shopping provides seniors with additional opportunity to get physically active and connect with other community members.

    Transportation Services

    The Tri Cities Better at Home Program requires volunteers for the Transportation Services. Trained volunteer drivers, provide seniors with transportation to their doctor's appointments, and other eligible personal appointments such as Pharmacy, Recreation facilities, Banks, and The personal appointments are within the Tri-Cities and medical appointments are across metro Vancouver. Using their own vehicles or agency vehicle, volunteers pick up their assigned seniors at their doorstep, take them to their appointment and return them home.

    Senior's Information Line

    The Tri Cities Better at Home Program requires volunteers to answer our Tri- Cities Senior's Information Line, which is dedicated to increase seniors' immediate access to information and provide one to one resource navigation support. Trained volunteers support seniors in accessing appropriate information and services that are offered by SHARE or other services providers in the community.

    Handy Helper

    The Tri Cities Better at Home Program requires volunteers who can assist seniors in the Tri-Cities with minor repairs. Repairs include minor plumbing, carpentry, and electrical work. These do not include extensive renovations, furniture moving, painting or exterior work. Mileage reimbursement is available.
