Volunteer: Help Educate Medicare Beneficiaries in WI

The SMP program offers volunteers an opportunity to make an important difference in their communities throughout Wisconsin.

Thank you for your interest in the Senior Medicare Patrol volunteer program. As a volunteer, you will play a vital role in the overall success of the Wisconsin SMP. The information that you will impart as a volunteer will help seniors in your community to become better health care consumers. Together we can inform and empower Medicare beneficiaries, their families and caregivers on how to protect, detect, and report Medicare fraud, abuses and errors. By volunteering, you will have an opportunity to use your talents, skills, and networking to provide outreach and education on Medicare fraud in your community. Volunteer involvement ranges from distributing materials, staffing a booth at conferences and outreach events, to giving group presentations. A description of these three activities is below.  

Information distributor: As a distributor, you help to transport and distribute SMP information materials to various sites, kiosks, or senior centers throughout your community where information resources are made available to residences. In this role, you do not need to engage in discussions with others about personal information or situations. However, you simply note all questions or comments and give them to the Volunteer Coordinator for follow-up. Exhibitor: As an exhibitor, you help to staff an informational table or booth at community events such as senior resources fairs, wellness expos, health workshops, conferences, civic or faith-based organizations, food pantries, libraries, or non-profit agencies. In this role, you provide information about the program to the attendees and answer basic questions related to how to prevent, detect and report Medicare fraud, abuse and errors. Presenter: As a presenter, you give presentations about the fundamentals of SMP to small and large groups. The role includes the opportunity for you to interact with the audience. If time allows, additional interaction will occur through Q & A and discussion at the end of the presentation. The presentations vary in length from 15 to 60 minutes. Depending on the time allotment and the audience, the presentations may involve a PowerPoint presentation, or an engagement activity called The FUNdamentals of Patrolling Health Care.

All positions require some training and an orientation. Training is provided both in-person and online. We want to provide you with the information and background you’ll need to be knowledgeable and capable of responding to questions from members of the community. The last two roles also require a background check.

Best practices for volunteering while avoiding COVID-19 exposure, provided by United Way of Dane County

Rely on updates and instructions from the Center for Disease Control. Volunteering at sites: Volunteers who arrive at a site should wear face masks to avoid possibly exposing the community members at the site as well as from possibly exposing themselves while volunteering at the site. Most sites will provide these or relevant instructions to volunteers. Ask for these in advance of arrival. Those volunteers who are showing signs of physical illness should not volunteer.  Those who were recently in contact with people showing signs of illness should not volunteer. Volunteers should know the exact roles and responsibilities expected by the site and the health and safety policies of the site. Read the volunteer need description clearly to understand your specific tasks. Volunteering remotely: Volunteers should know the exact roles and responsibilities expected by the site. Read the volunteer need description clearly to understand your specific tasks. Volunteer sites are fielding many emails and phone calls right now. Once you get started on tasks, make sure that you know the best way to communicate with the volunteer manager at the site to give you feedback on your progress as a volunteer. Overall, maintain 6-feet of distance from those around you.

Volunteer: Mentor a Child as a Big Brother or Big Sister

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

After enrolling in our Community-Based Mentoring Program, Bigs and Littles are thoughtfully matched based on geography (within a 20-minute drive), preferences (gender, race, age, etc.), and shared interests. Once the Match is approved by Big, Little, and parent/caregiver, introductions are made and we’re off!

Matches get together 2-4 times a month for a few hours. Bigs schedule outings directly with Littles and their parent/caregiver, and are responsible for picking up and transporting their Little. Activities vary based on the interests of the Bigs and Littles, so whether it’s frisbee at the park, paint night and ice cream, or a picnic hike, each Match can define what "quality time" looks like for them. 

THE ROLE OF BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS OF DANE COUNTY

Starting a new relationship can be daunting for both Big and Little, but we’re here every step of the way, providing:

Regular Match Support Contacts with Big, Little, and parent/caregiver to ensure the Match is healthy, safe, and thriving (monthly calls in the first year, then quarterly) BBBS-hosted activities each month for Matches to attend (skiing event, Halloween party, craft night, etc.) Tickets to sports, concerts, performing arts, etc. for Match outings Discounts or free admission to businesses around town for Match outings Resources and training for Bigs to increase cultural competency, trauma-informed mentoring, acknowledging biases, etc. Access to support services for families DID YOU KNOW?

While the majority of our Bigs mentor their Little one-on-one, more than 10% of our Matches are Big Couples and Big Families. In these Matches, volunteer Bigs sign up with their partner, spouse, children, etc., and get matched together with one Little. Mentoring is great, but mentoring with your family? Even better. To learn more about being part of a Big Couple or Big Family, contact us at reception@bbbsmadison.org or 608-661-5437.

PROGRAM BASICS One-to-one mentoring program for Littles ages 6-18 Bigs and Littles are matched based on geography (within 20-minute drive), Match preferences (gender, race, age, etc.), and shared interests Matches meet in-person for outings, choosing activities based on their schedules and interests Bigs schedule outings with Little and parent/caregiver and are responsible for picking up and transporting Little BBBS conducts regular Match Support contacts with Big/Little/parent to ensure the relationship is healthy, safe, and thriving (monthly contacts during the first year, quarterly after)

The goal of our "Vets for Vets" program is to match veteran patients with a hospice-trained veteran who may have a similar background. All patient visitation volunteers receive training regarding the philosophy of hospice, the role of the volunteer and other staff members, as well as, helpful skills in caring for and communicating with hospice patients and their families. Volunteers in our veterans program also receive additional training focused on a veteran's specific needs. Volunteer hours are flexible and scheduled according to your availability.

Emphasis is on providing comfort during the dying process. Requirements for Vigil Volunteers: 18 years of age or older, must agree to background and reference check, must be appropriately coping with any personal losses, impeccable communication skills, sound judgment regarding issues of death and dying, and ability to work independently with indirect supervision. Characteristics that Heartland is looking for in a Vigil Volunteer include: a positive outlook on life, flexibility, empathy, sensitivity to issues around death and dying, compassion, a willingness to help others and ability to work as a member of the hospice team. Reliable transportation is a must!

Agency: Heartland Hospice (Kenosha County)

Our number one goal at Heartland Hospice is to ensure no one dies alone. A hospice Vigil Volunteer is one of Heartland's most special and fulfilling opportunities. Vigil Volunteers sit bedside with a patient who is in their last hours of life. Support may involve prayer (reading from the Bible or other material that is comforting for patient), providing respite to family (allowing them to step away and eat a meal/take a break) or simply being present...providing comfort and peace of mind to all that the patient is not alone.

Our Vigil Volunteer program is more of an "on-call" opportunity; vigil support is based upon request of patient's family or caregiving team. Scheduling of vigil takes into consideration the volunteer's location and availability.

Volunteer: Support the Animals!

Saving Paws Animal Rescue would not be successful without the service and engagement of young people in our community. 

We have developed a list of ways for youth to support our rescue operation. Many of these ideas are from the students themselves. If you have an a new idea, we would love to hear it! 

On-site volunteering minimum age is 11 years old.  Youth from 11-15 years old must be accompanied by parent or guardian. These are some ways to help off-site or in a group!

Wish list Fulfillment – locate donors for items from our wish list to bring to our rescue. This is a great way for children to directly help our pets by finding them toys, blankets, litter, etc. and it gives them a wonderful feeling of generosity and pride!

Party For The Pets – host a birthday, holiday, or other party and ask that guests bring donated items or money for the dogs and cats instead of a present. Schedule a time to bring these gifts in and receive a tour and see first-hand all the animals you are helping!

Rescue Spokesperson – pass out general information flyers or special notices regarding upcoming rescue events like Santa Pictures, Gift Wrapping, Garage Sales, etc. They can also print pictures of our animals and pass them out to classmates and friends to show off our wonderful pets.

Classroom Organizers – talk to classes at their school about the rescue and encourage them to “adopt” Saving Paws Rescue as a community project. They can hold a coloring contest (winners posted on our website) and raise donations or gather items from our wish list. Some schools have organized penny Wars and donated change to benefit Saving Paws animals. Groundskeepers – organize a rescue beautification project. Your child’s classroom, troop or other groups can schedule time to come out and plant flowers, bushes or even pull weeds to help keep our rescue a beautiful and happy place for our pets.
