Compassionate volunteers needed for Silverado Hospice
Silverado Hospice is looking for compassionate people throughout Chicago and Suburbs who want to make a difference to our hospice patients and families. Volunteers act as friendly visitors, talking, reading, watching movies, looking at pictures or simply being with our patients or their families. You can join this very special team of volunteers who are making a difference to our patients and their families.
Medical skills are not required -- just a desire and heart to help others. Training is provided and we will work with your schedule.
For questions, please call 847-565-2355
Thank you in advance for you response!

Mission Statement
It is our mission to affirm the cycle of life by enhancing the quality of living for those at the end of life. The Silverado standard is to care compassionately for patients and families and to empower those we serve to have quality of life options that afford them comfort and dignity.
Description
Silverado Hospice honors the value of each life by empowering the patient and family to make supported choices in end-of-life care, enhancing comfort, relieving suffering and supporting effective grieving. We believe that Hospice patients have the right to continue life to the fullest extent possible according to their circumstances, and in fostering opportunities for growth and fulfillment. We further recognize patients and families decision-making rights in relation to continuing medical treatments and their right to withdraw treatment whose benefits are outweighed by their burdens. Silverado believes in equal opportunity and non-discrimination for our clients, our associates, and our community.
