Are you a lover? Or someone who feels genuine joy when they are helping others? These two qualities are ones possessed by saints and angels. It is rare to come by people who are willing to donate their free time to spending precious moments with essential strangers. A little simple companionship goes a long way. As a volunteer, you will assist by visiting the same patient weekly, which will inevitably form a bond. Through general conversation, discussion of likes and dislikes, card games, music sessions, craft activities in the facilities, you have the chance to make a true difference and presence in the patients lives. Schedules are extremely flexible, as we just want smiling faces to show up for our wonderful patients. If this opportunity calls to you, please do not hesitate and apply. Email hyoukhana@capitalhpc.com or call (630)-395-7728 TODAY!

We are actively seeking caring and compassionate individuals to volunteer with us! As a patient volunteer, you will truly make a difference in the lives of our patients and families. Help make an impact by visiting hospice patients in their homes or in facilities. Pay a friendly visit, accompany a patient to a activity, read aloud, reminisce with patients and listen as they share their memories and life stories, share your talents with patients through singing, playing an instrument, or creating art with a patient. This opportunity is great for individuals looking to one day work in health care or for those looking to give back to the community. Here's what one of our volunteers has to say about volunteering with Capital Hospice & Palliative Care: "As a Capital HPC volunteer, I am afforded the unique opportunity of providing meaningful companionship and social support to assisted living patients. In this capacity, I work very closely with the Volunteer Coordinator, Debbie Struck. Debbie is an amazing supervisor, and I could not have asked for a better volunteer experience."
