Companion for Hospice Patients: NorthWest Suburbs

AccentCare Hospice and Palliative Care- Illinois

Hospice companion volunteers visit with our patients in their homes or nursing homes. These visits provide companionship to our patients and provide much needed relief to primary caregivers to take time for self-care. Common activities our volunteers do with our patients include

Reading to the patient
Singing to the patient
Sharing stories
Playing games
Home patients can sometimes use additional support including light house work, meal prep, or yardwork

As a hospice volunteer you will learn about the hospice philosophy, communicating with patients and families, family dynamics, spiritual care and the grief process.

Please consider joining our team as we honor life and offer hope to those who need us most.

For additional information, please contact:
