Casa Samuel
Description: Caritas Salamanca has a safe house for people with HIV, and other illnesses, where it also offers to cover basic needs and the ability to start a process of personal recovery that allows achieving the maximum possible degree of autonomy.
Participation as a volunteer is performed in the guesthouse for AIDS and other diseases, so the possibility of living a volunteer experience in a social project is offered, approaching a concrete reality of exclusion, of some HIV-positive persons.
Type of Work: 1. Accompanying the residents: from everyday living in the guesthouse, to city walks or performing various steps.

Participate and encourage the various activities of leisure time that are developed from the House, encouraging everyone and helping those having greater difficulties (being in a wheelchair or walking with difficulty)
-

At all times during shifts the volunteer is accompanied by a teacher, or staff member of the House. Ask him all doubts that arise at any time, and about decisions and initiatives that affect the dynamics of the home and residents. We must not forget that it is a team effort.
