Description
Military Veterans have an important camaraderie that can make a profound difference at end of life. You have the ability to connect on a level that family and friends may not. Our Veteran-to-Veteran volunteer program strives to provide our Veteran hospice patients with the opportunity to receive companionship, understanding, and support from someone who has walked a mile in their shoes. As a Veteran volunteer you can foster reminiscence and healing, as well help us to honor their service.
We provide comprehensive training and practice all appropriate infection control measures.
