Hospice Volunteers Wanted!
Details
Description
Thank you for your interest in volunteering with us! Accord Hospice is a tight-knit and caring team that serves patients throughout the NorthShore, Northern, and Northwest Suburbs of Chicago. Guided by the core values of unconditional kindness, dedication, and dignity, Accord Hospice is big enough to do it all and small enough to care immensely about each individual we serve.
Volunteer services are a vital part of the Accord Hospice care team. After completing onboarding and training, volunteers have the opportunity to choose a role that best aligns with their interests and comfort level-whether that's clerical work, in-person visits, or remote support. No matter your skill set or passion, we’re committed to helping you find a meaningful and rewarding way to support our patients and their families.
Internship opportunities are available!
If you are interested, please reach out to our new Volunteer Coordinator, GLORIA SUTTER at 708-785-4569 between the hours of 9:00am-5:00pm M-F, or email her at gsutter@accordhospice.com.
