How We Support Clients
What Our Clients Say
INCOME TAX CLIENT
I wish to THANK your members for many kindnesses in recent months. A dear lady did my Income Tax via phone and I had immediate notice of a little refund.
In these nonagenarian years I find my days are brightened by kind/thoughtful people. BLESSINGS on all
SHOPPING BUS CLIENT
The SVSS shopping bus excursion is the highlight of the week for us. Not only do we get the weekly shopping done, with all the help we need, we also get to know like-minded people.
To meet others is extremely important for every one’s mental well-being. We look forward to our weekly adventure, combining pleasure with the necessities of life.
ELIGIBILITY
Any adult who is living independently within the Municipality of Saanich may be eligible to register for our services. Registration starts with a call from our Client Services Coordinator, Sharon Parker, who will contact you to set up an initial, in home consult to assess how our services may assist you.
PREPARED MEAL DELIVERY CLIENT
(please note this program is now suspended until funding is secured)
The meals are really tasty. It's a delight to have people like you in the community...SVSS fills a void in my life.
GARDENING CLIENT
I would like to thank you for the services last week. The volunteer was able to reach the weeds in areas that I cannot get. As there are numerous such areas we look forward to help again.
FRIENDSHIP PHONE CALL CLIENT
This is a note of appreciation for my volunteer. She has been so loyal, helpful and devoted. She is indeed an invaluable friend. I am most grateful for her help and practical wisdom and judgement. Thank you for matching her up with me.
REFERRAL & REGISTRATION
Our client program runs with self referral, health care referral, or community referral by phone, fax, or e-mail.
Upon referral, telephone contact will be made to confirm eligibility followed by a required one-on-one home visit with our client coordinator to complete the registration for services.
This visit will include a discussion of assistance required and information will be shared on other available community services.
Personal data, emergency contacts, and information on health, mobility, and other support services being received are collected during the registration process.
