St. Joseph of the Pines Has Active Volunteer Crew

St. Joseph of the Pines Health Center on Gossman Road off Camp Easter Road in Southern Pines is accepting applications for volunteers who would like to work with nursing home residents in a group setting with other volunteers for two specific activities.

The Wednesday morning coffee hour could use additional helping hands to serve refreshments and kind voices to socialize with residents in the dining room. Every Wednesday beginning at 10 a.m. the activity department supplies juice, coffee and pastries from the dietary department for the residents’ enjoyment. Volunteers are especially helpful during this relaxing and delicious activity.

The sing-along hour each Friday morning delights the residents with the talent of volunteer piano player Janet O’Loughlin and equally talented singers. Residents get to participate in an array of musical selections.

New volunteers are always welcomed to explore the opportunities available to help others within St. Joseph of the Pines Health System, a member of Catholic Health East that includes the Health Center, Rehabilitation Center, Villa Retirement Community, Belle Meade Retirement Resort, The Coventry and Providence Place.

Please call Jeralie Andrews, director of volunteer services for St. Joseph of the Pines Health System at 246-1139, for information about the above activities or to learn about the many other areas for volunteers to share their time and talents with residents and associates in the organization.
