Medical Coordinator

Looking for a way that YOU can help animals? We have an opening for a Medical Coordinator. Here's what it entails:

Someone who is available during days/evenings to take calls and schedule our adult foster dogs for their medical needs. Prefer someone who does not work or works part time and can handle the calls. Must be professional in dealing with people and our vets. Computer experience is helpful as you will be updating our medical database also.

If interested please email medical@almosthomefoundation.org or call Chuck 630-673-4320.

Did you know? ...

Pit bulls score better for aggression when compared to other dogs. Temperament evaluations by the American Temperament Test Society completed in 2011 give American Pit Bull Terriers a very high passing rate of 86.4%. That's higher than Beagles (80.6%), Border Collies (81.2%) and even Yorkies (82.5%)!  (Source: American Temperament Test Society, Inc. - http://atts.org)
