Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers are a very important part of The Wellington Retirement Home & Long Term Care Residence, Hamilton. Volunteers are recruited for the enrichment of the lives of the residents. Volunteers help provide close interaction with the community and help enhance the quality of the lives of our residents.
We are looking for caring and compassionate people who want to make a difference in their community and in the lives of seniors. We provide a flexible atmosphere that requires as little as one hour per week to spend time with a resident.

Our Reviews
I’ve never seen a better place to have a loved one retire or be taken care of. The staff are amazing xo
I recommend this place, my mother lives there and they take very good care of her.
We moved my in-laws into The Wellington Retirement home just over a month ago. I cannot say how impressed we are with the staff, the personalized service, and the management of the home. It has a homey feeling, is extremely clean, and has a great reputation in the community. We visited many big, brand new retirement homes in the area but The Wellington is the best in our opinion. All the residents are well taken care of and they all consider the community their home.
My mother received excellent care while a resident at The Wellington. The Wellington has caring and highly qualified nursing and personal support staff, as well as a fabulous Residents, Support Services Unit that works very hard to provide residents with interesting, fun, and entertaining activities on a daily basis. All staff has done an amazing job keeping the residents safe and entertained during the present COVIFD -19 outbreak.
I have stayed as a guest at The Wellington on two occasions. If I could give them more than five stars I would. I have made a lot of friends here. The activities are really interesting and challenging and the staff is more than considerate. My medical needs were managed discreetly, efficiently, and with consideration. I hope to make this my home someday.
I could not ask for a more caring and dedicated group of people. The Wellington has proven to be a wonderful place. During the Pandemic..they protected Residents like they were their own Loved Ones…keeping their Spirits up with music dance and “Wacky Hair Days and posted regularly on Facebook. During the time when we were unable to visit..the staff made regular Skype calls for the Residents. The Wellington turned out to be the Best place for my Mother..she laughs and talks about staff like they are Family..if I could..I would give it more stars. Keep up the Great Work, you guys are the Best.
This has got to be the most difficult and worrisome time for families of loved ones at the Wellington. But let me try and put your fears at rest. A little over a month ago I took a part-time maintenance position at the residence. In that short time, I can without reservation honestly say that the staff at the Wellington go that extra mile to care for your loved ones. You can sleep at ease in these difficult days knowing your loved ones are well cared for and I believe after we get through this you can thank them personally. Stay strong.
