VolunteeringVolunteers are an essential aspect to the quality of care we provide residents of Heritage Ministries. These individuals dedicate countless hours to making life better for every resident. Our volunteers give a very special gift to the residents each time they visit ... their time!

Volunteering is a very rewarding experience for both the volunteer and the resident. Just ask some of the dedicated volunteers who regularly visit the nursing home residents of Heritage Ministries. "I love to brighten the residents' days," explains Rachel Rennels, a volunteer at Heritage Village Rehab & Skilled Nursing, Inc.. Rachel finds it easy to give some of her time to the residents, since she herself enjoys living on the independent campus, Heritage Village Retirement Campus. Cassadaga resident, Rev. William Gow, is also willing to help out where needed at the health care centers. Rev. Gow will simply show up and ask, "How can I help?" Rachel and Rev. Gow exemplify the qualities all of our volunteers exhibit. Their dedication and desire to assist where needed helps Heritage Ministries provide only the finest quality of services to the residents.

Volunteers enrich the lives of our residents with their personal touch. Each one contributes his or her time, talents and expertise to helping meet the personal needs and desires of our residents.

If you are interested in learning more about how you can join the team of dedicated volunteers, please call us today at the contact information provided below. As you share your time with our residents, you will not only brighten their loives, but also brighten your own!
