senior citizens in their homes for as long as possible rather than placing them in institutions y for many older people the freedom to retain the privacy and com fort of familiar surroundings is one they cherish that freedom is often made possible through the efforts of home support service set up in stouffville in 1980 s it started as a pilot project explains coordnator jean ander- gon the provincial government felt seniors needed assistance to re main in their own community the organization helps people retain their independence in their wn homes something which helps seniors and their families who rften live some distance from them notes mrs anderson two types of service are provided by home support one is the volunteer program the other is the homemakers program volunteers help out by clearing driveways doing yard work and transporting seniors on various errands homemakers go into the seniors home and help with cleaning and meal preparation as well as offering companionship if you have a husband and wife and one is becoming confused the bther one cant get out well go in and stay with the person and allow he care giver some time to themselves explains mrs anderson home support has about 28 volunteers as well as 12 students from grade 12 at stouffville district secondary school who offer help through a program called hand in hand theres a desperate need for homemakers to join home support at present mrs anderson estimates the organization could take on at least four more people in addition to the 11 who are currently serving about 52 seniors the job would suit community oriented people who care for seniors she says homemakers receive 7 an hour to start with a minimum require- fnent of 10 hours per week theres also the advantage of working lbcally and getting to know others in the community x its nice for people who have just moved here its a way of getting to know people and becoming part of the community homemakers and clients often become close friends mrs ander son stresses and the involvement makes the job more worthwhile some of the seniors havent got family nearby and they begin to felyonthe homemaker almost as an extended family
