Perley Health - Veteran Volunteer Initiative

About the Service

Perley Health is a unique and innovative campus of care. Home to more than 600 Seniors and Veterans living in independent apartments or receiving long-term care, Perley Health is also a centre for research, education, and clinical and therapeutic services. From the person-centred and frailty-informed care we provide within our walls to the imperative research we conduct to inform the greater community – everything we do ensures Seniors and Veterans can enjoy their best quality of life, at any stage of the aging process. Our volunteers provide special comfort and care to residents of our Village. Volunteers are carefully screened and trained to give direct support through welcoming new residents and families, medical escorts, feeding, visiting, pet therapy, palliative and spiritual care. Volunteers enable greater participation in church services, creative arts, recreation, and physiotherapy programs. They staff Deborah’s Gift Boutique, the residents’ Pub and Ice Cream Parlour and they porter residents to the Beauty Salon and Barber Shop. Loved ones are welcome to volunteer to provide direction to the Health Centre through the Family and Friends Council.
