As the team at Carefor continues to adapt to ongoing changes with COVID-19, volunteers have stepped up, continuing to have a commanding presence in the lives of clients from afar.<\/h5>\n

Normally, Carmen is the Coordinator of Palliative Services in Eastern Counties and runs a Palliative Day Program out of Hawkesbury. The program offers a friendly environment that gives clients an opportunity to share with others going through similar life experiences. \u201cThey get so much enjoyment out of it. It\u2019s a day away from worrying about medical stuff going on in their lives.\u201d\"Carmen,<\/p>\n

However, when Carefor shifted operations in mid-March to meet COVID-19 changes, Carmen and her team saw the opportunity to continue to connect with clients while still meeting mandated guidelines. It was at this point her team of volunteers started contacting clients over the phone and by email to prevent them feeling isolated. \u201cMany clients are of a certain age, living alone. We\u2019ve had a couple cases where there were some serious things going on and the client needed support.\u201d The team formed a communication triangle, connecting Carmen with her volunteers who reach out to clients. The volunteers then communicate once more with Carmen in case there are any immediate supports required.<\/p>\n

Carmen is proud of her volunteers and the positive impact they continue to make within rural communities. \u201cThey are always flexible and adaptable. They want to help. I am very proud of my volunteers. They have done such a great job since they\u2019ve been off, making lots of calls and letting me know if something is off. There\u2019s good communication between us all.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThings appear much greyer, but there\u2019s a lot of light at the end of the tunnel. They\u2019re supported and they know people care \u2013 That brings a lot of light into their life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Although many of us are experiencing new realities, Carmen and her teams outlook is only positive and encouraging.  With the team ready and available over phone, Carmen shared \u201cThe portals of communication are open, and as time moves on, we\u2019re available and flexible.\u201d<\/p>\n
