ORGANIZATION: Compassus Hospice

Compassus Hospice is seeking kind and caring licensed massage therapists to provide extremely light touch massage to hospice patients.

We are looking for massage therapist volunteers to make visits to our patients in and around central Illinois to provide relaxation and pain relief through massage. There is no need to bring a massage table-the patient is in a hospital bed or chair and fully clothed. You must be a licensed massage therapist in the State of Illinois. A free mandatory comprehensive hospice volunteer training is provided to you.
