When I was in my twenties I worked in a nursing home. It was sad to see how many patients families rarely came to visit, if at all. Many of my patients didn't have any family close by to visit them so they didn't get visits at all except maybe around the holidays or on their birthdays. We can make a difference in the live of many elderly people by volunteering.

Hospitals also need volunteers in many different areas. Here is a link to help you get started.

You can also volunteer at meals on wheels to end senior hunger.
