VITAS Healthcare Veteran Volunteer ~ 32796

VITAS Healthcare wants to enlist your services to provide recognition and support to terminally ill veterans living at home and in nursing homes, assisted living communities and medical centers. Veterans enjoy receiving visitors-people who will listen to their fading memories and reminiscences.

Members of the VITAS Healthcare Veteran Volunteer team who are U.S. military veterans or active military themselves present recognition ceremonies. Nonmilitary members of this team provide ongoing support in a number of other ways.

Volunteer orientation teaches the skills required to be a hospice volunteer. VITAS Healthcare Veteran Volunteers are further trained to meet specific end-of-life needs of veterans to improve their quality of life. Time and dates are ongoing and flexible. Orientation and training to be a VITAS Veteran Volunteer is free.
