Are you looking to brighten the day of patients who are currently receiving hospice care? Do you have a certified therapy animal? If so then ALC Palliative and Hospice Care is the place for you. Here at ALC we believe that the patient and their loved ones are one unit of care. We strive to provide the best care possible ensuring that everyone is comfortable and pain free. Our volunteers go into our patient's home and care facilities and provide exceptional companion care. This can be something as simple as watching a favorite movie or TV show, or reading a book or just simply conversating with the patient and their loved ones. There are also administrative type volunteer opportunities as well. If you are interested please email Paul Leuzzi, CDP our Volunteer Coordinator at pleuzzi@alchospicecare.com or via phone call at 773-599-0143.

Thank you! We look forward to working with you.
