New Driver Position "Errands Shopper"
According to AARP polls, almost 9 in 10 Americans over the
age of 60, wish to remain in their own homes and community.
BTSS currently offers services like HDM, Medical
Transportation and Telephone Reassurance to make "aging in
place" safe and affordable for our elderly residents. To
further this effort we are adding a new volunteer driver
position "Errands Shopper" to assist non-driving elders with
their local grocery shopping and errands. The time commitment
is planned for a 2 hour visit every month. Schedule is
flexible and can be worked out between client and volunteer as
to day and time trip are made utilizing the volunteer's
vehicle.
