Core Values Respect Participation Responsiveness Courage
Philosophy VON, a registered charity, addresses the health needs of people in Canada through services provided by nurses, other health professionals, support service workers and volunteers. As a major provider of nursing and other services, in the home and community, VON believes that: • Individuals have primary responsibility for their own health. • The maintenance of health directly and positively affects the quality of their life. • The value and dignity of human life is respected. • Individuals have the right to accept or refuse health care, to obtain information about their health and health care, and to participate with health professionals in making decisions about and plans for the provision of their care. Individuals and families are supported so they can live, and meet death, in comfort and with dignity. • Access to comprehensive, compassionate, family and community centred health care is the right of all individuals regardless of their ability to pay. • Health care providers should work in partnership to develop, implement and evaluate services which respond to the expressed needs of individuals, families and communities in keeping with the principles of primary health care.

Local VON Community Support Services Community Support Services are offered through a variety of professional and volunteer programs. VON, through the Durham Region Site offers:
Seniors Maintaining Active Roles TogetherŽ SMART Exercise Program The VON SMART Group Exercise Program is an exercise program designed for adults 55+ who may require a little extra support due to health issues, mobility restrictions, confidence, chronic disease or other reasons. There is no floor or mat work involved and all exercises are tailored to the participant’s ability level. Developed and implemented by VON Canada, the SMART Program provides exercise opportunities for older adults keeping in mind their personal fitness level and ability. VON SMART Exercise Programs are led by adult volunteers who receive specialized training, including CPR and First Aid to deliver safe, appropriate, physical exercise designed for successful aging. These exercise groups are offered weekly at 16 locations throughout the Durham Region, seven of which are specialty classes for participants living with Diabettes, Multiple Sclerosis, Mental Health concerns or Stroke recovery. Weekly classes are delivered in 15 week sessions taking breaks between sessions. The VON SMART In-Home Exercise Program is offered to those having barriers getting outside of their home due to health or transportation issues. This program offers clients who are isolated and unable to attend a traditional exercise class, the opportunity to receive one on one coaching and motivation during weekly one hour sessions in the comfort of their own home over the course of 15 weeks. The exercises are easy to follow with noted success when done independently or with the assistance of family or friend between weekly sessions with the VON volunteer. Community Health Guide

Benefits of VON SMART Programs include….. • Improve physical health, mobility, independence and energy. • Increase and maintain strength, coordination, balance and flexibility – which in turn help to prevent falls. • Manage weight and improve lung and heart function. • Help to manage chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, cholesterol, stress, arthritis and osteoporosis. • Provide opportunities to meet new people and socialize. Along with a $2.00 fee per class, funding for these 15 week programs is supported in part by the Central East Local Health Integration Network combined with local fundraising and charitable donations to VON Durham.
Assisted Living Services for Seniors The VON Assisted Living Services for Seniors provides support services to eligible seniors living within designated geographic areas across the Central East LHIN. Within Durham Region, the Central East LHIN funds VON to provide Assisted Living Services in a geographic hub that includes the communities of Beaverton, Cannington and Sunderland. Services include personal support assistance such as dressing, personal hygiene, assisting and monitoring medication use and other routine activities of living; homemaking services including shopping, housecleaning and meal preparation; security checks or reassurance services including visits to ensure client health or safety; and care coordination. Services are flexible to the needs of the client and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on both a scheduled and unscheduled basis. Eligible seniors include those at high risk of requiring institutional care without this flexible and client-centred style of enhanced support. The VON Assisted Living Services allow these individuals to remain in their own homes with the services and support they need to maintain their health and safety.

Local VON Hospice Services Bereavement Services
Support for Adults This program is based on a peer support model, which means that volunteers who are bereaved and further along in their grief journey, provide support to clients who are also bereaved. Volunteers provide one-on-one support and facilitate bereavement groups such as: • Spousal Loss • Parent Loss • Mixed Loss (Drop-In)
Support for Children & Teens VON Durham Hospice Services offers a Children/Teen’s Bereavement Program facilitated by volunteers who support participants by creating a safe space to share their stories, explore questions and feelings, and learn healthy coping strategies. A Caregiver Support Group is available concurrently with the Children/Teen’s Bereavement Program, providing caregivers with information about how to best support their children.
Palliative Care Services Our Palliative Care Services provide emotional, social and spiritual support to individuals and families facing a life limiting diagnosis and advanced illness. We offer one-on-one visits, support for clients and/or caregivers, a Caregivers Drop-In Group, as well as a Day Hospice Program. Our staff and trained volunteers work in partnership with community health care professionals and other service providers in an effort to enhance the quality of client care. VON Palliative Care Coordinators assess clients using a holistic model based on physical, spiritual, emotional and social needs. Clients are then matched with a trained volunteer who provides ongoing support. Our VON Palliative Care volunteers are rigorously screened and complete the “Fundamentals of Hospice Palliative Care” training program. They consist of men and women of all ages and come from all walks of life. Community Health Guide

Working in partnership with community partners, our Palliative Care Community Team provides clients and their families with holistic health care including emotional, social and spiritual support. The PCCT is available for anyone diagnosed with a life-threatening illness at any time between an initial diagnosis through bereavement. The PCCT is currently available in the Municipality of Clarington and the Townships of Brock, Scugog and Uxbridge and is looking to expand throughout Durham Region in the coming years. Day Hospice This program offers social interaction, peer support and companionship in a group setting for clients who can manage their own care and are cognitively alert. Day Hospice provides caregivers with some respite time as well as an opportunity for them to gather and have a space where they can share and receive support.
Information and Education VON Hospice Services provide education and consultation regarding death, dying, grief and bereavement to both individuals and groups in the community.

Volunteer With VON A Community Team Volunteers are central to VON’s Mission, working in partnership with VON staff to develop, implement and deliver services that meet community needs. We have a role for You!
VON Volunteers are: • Warm and caring • Dependable, patient and trustworthy • Good communicators • From all walks of life • Willing to give back to their community through sharing their time and talents
Discover the Joy of being a VON Volunteer Here is a sample of the exciting volunteer opportunities that may be available to you.
SMART Group Program SMART Exercise Program volunteers receive extensive training through the VON SMART Program Coordinator in order to be qualified Seniors’ Fitness Instructors. The Program Coordinator at VON mentors volunteers during this process until they are comfortable in leading the weekly exercise groups on their own. VON provides all the training at no charge to the volunteer. Other volunteers play a supporting role in the SMART Program by welcoming participants and helping to keep groups running smoothly. SMART In-Home Program SMART In-Home Volunteers receive a one-day training session in carefully designed exercises to assist older housebound adults to maintain or increase their level of fitness. Volunteers then visit a participant’s home on a weekly basis to lead them through this series of exercises and encourage them toward their goal of improved mobility. The SMART Program Coordinator mentors the volunteers and VON provides all the training at no cost to the volunteer. Community Health Guide
13
Palliative and Bereavement Client Support Hospice volunteers must complete 30 hours of Fundamentals of Hospice Palliative Care and/ or Bereavement training prior to being matched with a client. Through one-to-one matches and facilitated group discussions, volunteers provide support to clients living with a life-threatening illness, caregivers and individuals who are bereaved. One-to-one matches are based on common personality traits, life experiences and availability. Bereavement clients and volunteers are matched based on similar loss. If you are interested in becoming a bereavement volunteer then you must have experienced your own significant loss as our bereavement support is based on a peer-support model. Volunteers within VON hospice services provide peer-based support both in our offices and in the community.
Volunteer Blood Pressure Checks Volunteers receive specialized training from VON to conduct blood pressure checks in convenient locations such as community centres, local pharmacies or senior’s housing. Individuals with an interest in helping to improve community awareness of the importance of cardiovascular health and to assist older adults to monitor their blood pressure on a regular basis would be well-suited to this role. Community Corporation Provide leadership at the local site level of VON. People interested in this level of volunteering choose to share their expertise and knowledge to enhance organizational objectives and support the goals of advocacy, strategic development and fundraising to enable VON charitable programs to be delivered locally. The Board and Committee members generally meet in the evenings on a monthly basis. Administrative Support Administrative volunteers assist during regular business hours at the VON office or other off site locations. Volunteers assist with filing, photocopying, faxing, bookkeeping, data entry etc.

They also participate in a variety of activities promoting community based health care, and advocate on behalf of seniors and caregivers in the region.
