    Description

    Veterans Volunteers Needed In Richmond

    As part of our commitment to the We Honor Veterans program (a program of the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization), we are looking for military veterans to serve as volunteers and provide companionship to our patients who are also veterans. Veteran volunteers are important because they are able to form a camaraderie with veteran patients that can help eliminate the stoicism and secrecy that veteran patients often develop from having served in the armed forces.

    Veteran Volunteers can help by:

    • Assist veterans in reminiscing/telling life stories
    • Take part in pinning ceremonies or distribute certificates for Veteran’s Day and other recognition events
    • Friendly visits
    • Improve communication within families
    • Provide respite for caregivers
    • Read to patients

    Veteran volunteers have the unique ability to relate and connect with each veteran patient allowing them to become an essential piece in the delivery of quality end-of-life care.

    If you are a veteran and want to learn more about our volunteer program,

    please call 586-506-9110.
