What kind of office support do we need?
- Our TCC volunteers assist the Team Care Coordinators with keeping the teams organized and running. These volunteers are located in JourneyCare offices and help with daily tasks including; answering phones, assisting with copying, filling, faxing and more. A basic comfort level with computers is helpful. We can train you to do any of these specific tasks.
- Our Volunteer Department Assistants team with their supervisors to manage files, build the team through community outreach and manage day to day tasks within the office setting. If you enjoy variety, this position may be for you! Your help may be needed as you meet new people, organize, files, make phone calls or do some data entry.

Mission Statement

Description
JourneyCare's Vision:
Transforming lives by building a community where exceptional palliative, supportive and end-of-life care is accepted, expected and available to all.
We provide pain and symptom management and end-of-life expertise to residents of a 13-county service area in northern Illinois. Offering both in-home care and five Hospice CareCenters, we are known for our broad continuum of care and innovative programming.
Beyond traditional services and a comprehensive bereavement program, we have the largest pediatric hospice and palliative care program in Illinois and we embrace non-traditional therapies as well as open access for patients receiving aggressive treatment.
Our mission is achieved by a team of board-certified physicians and highly-skilled nurses, therapists, counselors, social workers, chaplains, and volunteers.
JourneyCare has never turned anyone away due to inability to pay because our promise is to meet the patient where they are, build trust, and share the journey, regardless of reimbursement rates. We seek to put the patient in control of their care--because it's the patient's experience and the family's memory.
We are here to help when patients and families need it most. We begin by listening and answering the questions of those who come to us. We know that each experience is personal--and so is our care. We offer the physical, emotional, and spiritual support that's needed to welcome each new day.
