Member Review & Assessment Volunteer - MHA Communities Bradford & District

Our Member Review and Assessment Volunteers provide a vital role in supporting an older person as a member.  Our volunteers provide a warm friendly face, building trust, rapport and confidence for an older person to attend social activities, so often needed when an older person who has very few friends or family living close by. Our volunteers also provide insight into how members are benefitting from the activities and services that are offered by our services.  
Every person who undertakes a member assessment and/or a member review is given full and comprehensive training.  

You will help the service with undertaking member reviews, and in certain circumstances, initial member assessments

By becoming a member review and assessment volunteer, you will play a vital role in supporting an older person as a member.  You will help us understand what the member needs to enable them to live later life well, and provide insight into the services which are needed in the area, to help us plan future delivery.
You will also gain valuable skills and knowledge that can enhance your personal and professional development.

You will receive ongoing support and guidance from a local coordinator who will monitor your progress, and provide feedback. You will also have access to online resources, training opportunities, and peer support from other volunteers.
