Project Rose Coodinator
Interfaith Caregivers-Blue Earth, MN
08.2013 - 07.2014
Working directly with seniors to connect them with the services that they might need
Meet with the seniors one on one to access their needs they might have
Then sign them up for our program and connect them to any other resources they may need
As a ROSE (Reaching Out to Support Elderly) coordinator; our goal at Interfaith Caregivers is to keep the seniors in their homes as long as safely possible
Assist elderly clients in arranging rides they may need to the grocery store, doctors' appointments or any other types of appointments
Interfaith is run off volunteers so I would contact the volunteer and connect them with seniors in need of rides
I would also arrange friendly visits or housekeeping with our homemaker/ chore program
I would set up individuals to come in and clean for our elderly clients who could no longer do some of these cleaning tasks on their own
Interfaith Caregivers has 8 different care teams in the surrounding towns where I would meet with those teams of volunteers and access what the needs for the clients in their community are and what the volunteers are doing to meet those needs
Also discuss what we could be doing to better the lives of the seniors in their area
Met with the Interfaith Board of Directors monthly to access what we were doing to reach out to the elderly in Faribault County
Also meet the State of Minnesota to present our numbers of senior clients receiving services to obtain our yearly grant from them.
