Pathways to Compassion Hospice is a member of the We Honor Veteran's Campaign. Our hospice care team of professionals and volunteers strive to ensure that our veteran patients recieve special recognition and gratitude for their service to our country. We are looking for volunteers with former or current military experience to serve as volunteers for our very important veteran patients. As a part of honoring our veterans, we conduct a special individualized pinning ceremony. We present the veteran with a pin and a certificate from the Nebraska Hospice Veteran Partnership. We would like military volunteers to assist in these ceremonies as a veteran-to-veteran volunteer for patients receiving end-of-life care. Training and supervision is provided.

Mission Statement
Pathways to Compassion Hospice has defined as its mission to affirm life during its final stages by providing holistic compassionate care to patients and their families; by providing access to hospice care for underserved or difficult to serve populations; by wise and efficient use of available resources, and by educating the community in order to provide them with knowledge regarding end-of-life and hospice care around quality of life.
Description
Hospice provides palliative support and care for persons in the last phases of incurable disease so that they may live as fully and as comfortable as possible. Hospice recognized dying as part of the normal process of living and focuses on maintaining the quality of remaining life. Hospice affirms life and neither hastens nor postpones death. Hospice exists in the hope and belief that through appropriate care, and the promotion of a caring community sensitive to their needs, patients and their families may be free to attain a degree of mental, social, physical, and spiritual preparation for death that is satisfactory to them.
