Our People

At Hospital Companions we consider our people to be our greatest asset. It is our people who are the bridge which connect patients, families, and medical staff during a health-related situation. We are very selective in who we call one of our own.

Our Companions are college-educated individuals with backgrounds in the area of Social Work, Psychology, Communications, or Education. These specialties encompass the characteristics essential to providing the personalized care our services offer. A high level of empathy, understanding, and critical thinking are required to be a member of the Hospital Companions team.

Our people share an in-depth knowledge of the technological aspects of our service. As the administrators of our Patient Page, they are experts in information dissemination in both the personal and web-based capacities.

In addition to having a high level of education, each of our Companions has had their own personal experience with having a loved one hospitalized. We believe these unique personal experiences deepen the commitment and understanding our Companions bring to our patients and their families.

Testimonial

My family lives on the east coast and I am in Chicago. Hospital Companions' Patient Page really helped keep my family informed about my progress and the messages that family and friends posted on the page kept my mood up.
