  • Participate in special events or administrative projects

What we provide:

  • Comprehensive training to prepare you for your role
  • Ongoing support and supervision from our hospice care team
  • Flexible scheduling based on your availability

Ideal qualities:

  • Compassionate, nonjudgmental, and reliable
  • Good listener with a calm and caring presence
  • Ability to maintain confidentiality and boundaries

Location: Our office is located in Oakbrook Terrace, IL. We service the Chicagoland area.

Hours: Flexible; typically 2–4 hours per week

Training: Provided at no cost

If you’re looking for a meaningful way to give back and bring comfort to others, we’d love to meet you.
