How old do you have to be in order to work at a Nursing home?

  • Im 15 and i was womdering if could volunteer or work at a Nursing Home right down the street from my house.I have good grades and im in advanced classes.

  • Answer:

    You should contact them and find out what their volunteer application looks like. The info might be available on their website too. Usually the age for volunteering with people is 14-16, and requires a police check, I think. It will vary from place to place though.

If you are with adults then it is ok. My kids often visit nursing homes with my inlaws who volunteer there. My kids help out along side their grandparents. They go to different nursing homes sometimes too. My oldest is 15 & loves it as much as my other two. Volunteering alone though may have some special requirements. Contact the nursing home.

Contact them to find out. Most likely they will require you to be 18 with a GED or high school diploma to work there, but you can most likely volunteer there at your age :)
