Volunteer for Seniors

By volunteering to help seniors, CSAs will gain a broader understanding of the issues older adults face - and learn more about the organizations available to help seniors and their families.

• CSA CE credit hours: One hour of volunteer work earns 1 hour of CSA CE credit.
  Providing direct care for a senior relative or family member can be included as volunteer experience for up to half of the maximum of 9 allowed credits - 4.5 credits.
• Reporting your volunteer hours: Members must track the number of volunteer hours they work, including dates, times, names of the organizations and individual contact names. SCSA will randomly audit members’ volunteer records every year.
