About the Maximizing Aging Using Volunteer Engagement (Mauve) Program
The Maximizing Aging Using Volunteer Engagement (MAUVE) Program aims to improve the quality of life of hospitalized older adults at Mount Sinai Hospital and reduce their risk of functional decline. The MAUVE Program links specially trained volunteers with hospitalized older adults whose personal and social needs are not always well met within the traditional fast-paced medical environment of the hospital. By providing older patients with companionship and additional functional support during their stays, MAUVE volunteers enhance the experiences of older frail patients admitted to our hospital.
For more information about the MAUVE Program or to learn more how to become a MAUVE Volunteer, please contact Mount Sinai Hospital’s Volunteer Services by phone at 416-586-4800 ext. 8200 or by email at volunteer.msh@sinaihealth.ca.
