CareNet

Indiana County CareNet is a NonProfit, "Faith in Action" based organization. The History of CareNet can be reached as far back as 1997. One of our main goals is to match Volunteer Caregivers and Care Receivers for a mutual friendship. Spending time together offers benifits to all individuals involved.

Care-receivers are individuals {elderly and disabled} whom need a little extra help and time from our Volunteer Caregivers.

Being a Volunteer Caregiver is a rewarding Experience, not only for the Volunteers, for the Care-receivers as well.

Over the course of these friendly visits, our Care Recievers will ask or need help with tasks. An example of these are:

Friendly visit{of course}
Shopping assistance
Transportation
Repsite care
Light meal preperartion during visist
Pet care if the care-receiver owns a pet
Yard work
Ect....

The Matching Proccess

The Director is assigned to meet the Care Receiver, which an intake is done to gather the important information about the Individual. Needs and Interests are the basis to finding the proper Volunteer Caregiver with the Right Volunteer.

Before any visits begin, a meeting between the Director,Volunteer Caregiver and Care Receiver is established.

If for any reason A Caregiver is not able to fullfill their duties for their Care Receiver. It is vtial to contact us as soon as possible.

Our services depend upon the availability of volunteers!
