Veteran Support

Mary Washington Hospice's We Honor Veterans program is looking for volunteers! The goal is to provide hospice care for veterans based on a foundation of compassionate listening, respectful inquiry, and grateful acknowledgment of military service. We provide training to address how to handle veteran-specific physical and emotional issues that may arise near the end of life. Volunteers provide critical support, compassion and companionship to the Veterans. We prefer to utilize volunteers who are Veterans themselves, as there is a special bond sharing experiences in military service.
