Our hospice program, "Vets Caring for Vets," needs volunteers who are willing to share some of their time and talents to help patients and their families who are dealing with end-of-life issues.
Volunteers work directly with patients and families to provide services such as:
-Companionship
-Emotional Support
-Socialization
-Respite for caregivers
Trained hospice volunteers who also are veterans will have the unique ability to support other veterans who are terminally ill. Our hospice program will provide education on the hospice philosophy and our care model. Our training will also help veterans understand their role as hospice volunteers.
