Veterans Caring for Veterans
Our hospice program needs veteran volunteers who are willing to share some of their time and talents to help patients and their families who are dealing with end of life issues.
Trained hospice volunteers, who are also veterans, will have the unique opportunity to support other veterans who have a life limiting illness. They will work directly with patients and families to provide services such as: companionship, emotional support, socialization, respite for caregivers, participation in veteran pinning ceremonies, educate our team on military culture.
Our hospice program will provide education on the hospice philosophy and our care model. Our training will also help veterans understand their role as hospice volunteers.
