2013-07-16 06:53:45 PM debsnider yes...butyou need a good volunteer coordinator...with out a good one...they just loose interest

2013-07-16 06:54:19 PM slf0038 I need some more volunteers. We had a senior companion program and it didnt work so well!
2013-07-16 06:54:31 PM debsnider we had a very poorly poorly organized A.D. who kept loosing volunteers at the SNF
2013-07-16 06:54:46 PM dianajacoby Do you have an Experience Works program in your area?
2013-07-16 06:54:55 PM kathyhughes WEll ladies we cover that in MEPAP2....
2013-07-16 06:55:10 PM ss1325 great!
2013-07-16 06:55:10 PM kathyhughes but you have to have specific job descriptions
2013-07-16 06:55:16 PM ss1325 definitely!
2013-07-16 06:55:18 PM debsnider volunteers should be treated like diamonds cause that is what they are....dimonds in the rought....
2013-07-16 06:55:22 PM hreif2013 Try hooking up with your local senior center
2013-07-16 06:55:24 PM kathyhughes right
2013-07-16 06:55:32 PM lisashockley10 cant wait for MEPAP2
2013-07-16 06:55:55 PM dianajacoby You can get some very skilled volunteers...not all in the rough. Treat with aTLC :-)
2013-07-16 06:56:00 PM kathyhughes Lets get through this! Then I will be there for you in MEPAP2
