Description

Do you enjoy driving and connecting with senior citizens?

If so, we are looking to expand our team of volunteer drivers.

How this works

This volunteer position includes the responsibility of driving senior citizens to and from medical appointments.

Our volunteer drivers pick up the senior's at their residences and drive them to their appointment destination. You will help the senior into the doctor's office, wait for them and then drive them home.  All our Senior clients are Burnaby based, and drivers will transport them to medical appointments within Burnaby, and to Vancouver, the Tricities, as well as New Westminister. 

You will be sent further info, once you respond to this opportunity! 

Additional Information

There are no costs for the volunteer driver to cover. All expenses are covered by our organization.

Please respond to this need if this sounds like something that you might be interested in. 

Contact:  Please email SeniorsTransport@bbyservices.ca if you have any questions!

Your health and safety are important to us 

Maintain physical distancing by keeping a minimum 2-meter distance between you and any other person not in your immediate family.

Wearing a non-medical mask or face covering while out in public is recommended for periods of time when it's not possible to consistently maintain a 2-metre physical distance from others, particularly in crowded public settings.

Avoid touching your face and in particular your eyes, nose and mouth.

Practice good hand hygiene by washing your hands thoroughly and often. Wash hands with soap for a minimum of 20 seconds and rinse under clean running water.   

If you are unwell, please stay home and do not take on a drive with us. If you are at all unsure of your health status, the BC Centre for Disease Control’s online self-assessment tool is available at https://covid19.thrive.health/
