About

At Crossroads Hospice, we are dedicated to providing quality end-of-life care. We recognize the sacrifices that men and women of the armed forces have made in serving their country. To better care for patients who are veterans, the Crossroads Hospice staff and volunteers are educated and trained in caring for veterans at the end-of-life. Active service members and veterans are encouraged to volunteer!

Here are just a few ways you can make a difference in the life of veterans with terminal diagnoses: * Visits to hospice veterans in their home or nursing home

  • Listen to their life story and reminisce with them
  • Help create a Life Journal to give to their family
  • Participate in our Honor Our Veterans Recognition Program
  • Run errands for those who are homebound
  • Educate veterans' groups about hospice services by speaking at their meetings

All volunteers must attend training and meet minimum requirements. You decide the number of hours you can dedicate each week or month and how far from your home or office you can travel.

Our next training is Wednesday, October 26th, from 5:00-6:30pm.
