Age Care Volunteer Visitor Scheme (ACVVS)
What’s the difference between Chats and ACVVS?
ACVVS has a focus of isolated individuals who live in a residential aged care facility or have an assigned Home Care Package.
Chats provides support under the entry level Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP) and the Tasmanian Home and Community Care Program (HACC).
Both programs however provide 1-on-1 or group support, depending on the individual.
What sort of training do volunteers have?
Our volunteers have been equipped with the knowledge required to provide appropriate companionship. Additionally, they have undergone necessary checks prior to becoming a volunteer with the program.
