Make a difference in someone’s life today!
Hospice volunteers have a unique opportunity to brighten the lives of patients when they need it most. APEX Hospice is currently seeking compassionate volunteers to visit in their homes or in nursing facilities throughout the Chicagoland area.
APEX Hospice cares is looking for dedicated volunteers to provide regular visits, companionship, and emotional support.
Volunteers play a vital role in enhancing quality of life through simple, meaningful interactions. As a volunteer, you may:
-Sit and visit with patients
-Read aloud or write letters
-Engage in games, crafts, or conversation based on patient preferences
-Bring small items like magazines, supplies, or flowers if desired
This is a non-medical role focused entirely on providing comfort, presence, and connection. All volunteers will receive orientation and training to ensure they feel confident and supported in their role. Opportunities to tailor visits based on patient needs will be discussed as part of the care plan. Join us in making a meaningful difference—one visit at a time.
Visits are typically an hour long and would be scheduled based on volunteer availability and patient preference. Recommended volunteer frequency is 1X/week or 2X/month.
