Geraldine
I was a registered nurse for 45 years and when I retired in 2019 I felt I still had so much more to give. So when I heard of CHOB I knew that as a voluntary carer I could continue my passion for caring people, who through no fault of their own are suffering from a life limiting illness.
These people, our CHOB clients, and their carers may need help in many ways. As a volunteer I can help by taking a client to appointments, help by just sitting and listening and maybe relieving the full time carer to have some time out.
I view the role I undertake as a volunteer carer, a privilege and hope that I play an important part in my client's journey.
