For this reason, we welcome volunteers to support our work. We offer a wide range of opportunities for volunteering. If you enjoy contact with people, are looking for a meaningful occupation and would like to share your experiences with like-minded people, then you have come to the right place.
Volunteers choose the place and the tasks that they enjoy: in the afternoon care, the reading group, conversations, or as a companion on walks. They bring their own ideas for the care of our residents.
The residents are very grateful for the regular exchange and the great enrichment in the various spheres of activity. Volunteers are an important support of our GFO Center Lennestadt - Wohnen & Pflege Josefinum. Of course we insure you against accidents and liability risks.
