"I am an Ombudsman assigned to Geneva's nursing homes, and I take my two loving dogs with me each week to visit the residents. The three of us are always warmly welcomed, called by name, and thanked by staff and residents alike for being caring volunteers. I know exactly why I volunteer for Lifespan."
