    Description

    Looking to continue your mission of service and connect with your community in a profound way? Gentiva Hospice is actively seeking compassionate and dedicated veteran volunteers to support individuals and families navigating end-of-life care. This isn't just about giving your time; it's about extending comfort, easing loneliness, and offering vital relief during challenging moments, continuing your legacy of impactful service.

    Why Your Service Matters Here:

    You've already demonstrated an unwavering commitment to something bigger than yourself. Here's how you can continue to make a tangible impact with us:

    • Be a Battle Buddy: Offer a friendly voice and a listening ear through phone calls or in-person visits, often to fellow veterans.
    • Provide Essential Relief: Give family caregivers a much-needed break, knowing their loved one is in capable and caring hands.
    • Run Critical Errands: Help with groceries or other necessary outings for patients or caregivers who may be unable to do so themselves.
    • Offer Steady Support: Be a consistent source of comfort and reliability for patients and their families.
    • Engage in Facility Events: Bring joy and connection to residents, including veterans, at our partner care facilities.

    What You'll Gain from This Mission:

    • Continued Impact: Your presence will directly improve the quality of life for patients and their families, often those who share a similar life experience.
    • Deep Personal Fulfillment: Experience the profound satisfaction of giving back and connecting with others on a deep, meaningful level.
    • A United Team: Join a supportive and compassionate group of staff and fellow volunteers, many of whom are also veterans, all dedicated to exceptional care.
