CareNet
is
a locally based,
nonprofit, volunteer organization modeled after other Interfaith
Volunteer Caregiver
Programs found across the United States.
CareNet
helps
recruit, train and
match volunteers who provide non-medical support services to the frail
elderly
and medically homebound.
CareNet
is
founded on the belief
that faith organizations, community agencies, hospital and private
service
organizations can work together to close the gap between assistance
already
offered and those people who fall just short of the criteria
requirements of
those services.
CareNet
is
dedicated to helping people
improve their quality of life and remain independent as long as
possible.
CareNet volunteers provide
services free of
charge to those in need.
Services
include:
+ Friendly
visiting
+ Handyman
for small home repairs and chores
+ Light
housekeeping

for primary caregivers
+ Telephone
assistance

a often as your schedule permits
