Caring Hands training new caregivers

The Caring Hands Volunteer Caregivers Program is celebrating its 20th anniversary of creating enriching matches with seniors who treasure a visit, walk, social outing or occasional ride.

Concord resident Mark Hutchings, a longtime program volunteer, shares his many interests and talents with care receivers. He always says yes to a last-minute or early morning ride request.

If you can spare one to three hours a week to offer friendship and occasional rides, attend the Caring Hands volunteer training on May 17 at John Muir Health’s Concord Medical Center.
