    Description

    Veteran-to-Veteran Hospice Companion Volunteer - Jeffersonville, IN

    Our nation’s Veterans have faced diffi­cult issues throughout their lifetime. As they near the end of their lives, they continue to face unique challenges, both old and new. These challenges are best addressed by another Veteran.

    Veteran volunteers have the unique ability to relate and connect with Veteran patients and their families.

    Our Veteran-to-Veteran Volunteer Program aims to pair recruited Veteran volunteers with our Veteran hospice patients. Veteran volunteers have the distinct ability to relate and connect with Veteran patients thereby creating a safe environment where life review and healing can occur. Once paired, they can share in their common language and experiences, forming strong relational bonds.

    If you know a Veteran with a passion for caring for others and looking to serve your fellow Veterans, consider becoming a Veteran hospice volunteer. Our volunteers are an important part of our hospice care team, helping improve the quality of life for our Veteran patients, their families and their caregivers.
