Who We Are

Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital in Barrington, IL is a leader in delivering the most advanced medical technologies and comprehensive health care services available in Illinois’ northwest suburbs. In 2017, Advocate Good Shepherd completed a four-year modernization project to ensure health care delivery remains outstanding and attuned to the evolving needs of the community. This project improved the patient care experience by enhancing privacy and making it more convenient to access inpatient and outpatient services. Advocate Good Shepherd is part of Advocate Aurora Health, the 10th largest not-for-profit, integrated health system in the United States. 

What We Do

We help people live well.

We have a wonderful family of over 500 dedicated community volunteers! We make sure our volunteers have a meaningful experience when volunteering with us. We interview each candidate to learn about their passions and interests so we can connect them to an assignment that will fill their hearts and needs. We offer opportunities in patient care areas, guest service areas, offices or our Catchpenny Resale Shoppe downtown Barrington. In the course of volunteering, our volunteers participate in recognition events and hospital celebrations, receive recognition for their hours of service and more! At Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital we take pride in creating a caring and engaging environment for our volunteers where they feel fulfilled, supported, appreciated and loved!

During COVID, we have put many safety measures in place to ensure all volunteers are safe when volunteering with us. 

All volunteers receive thorough training, are required to complete a free of charge medical screening and a a free of charge criminal background check. 

We look forward to having you on our team!
