Become A Force for Good - Veterans in Need of End-of-Life Support

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Gentiva Hospice

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.

Gentiva Hospice is part of the "We Honor Veterans" program that specializes in quality care for Veterans on their End-of-life Journey. Be part of our hospice team who cares for terminally ill Veterans in their homes, nursing homes and assisted living facilities all over San Bernardino and Riverside Counties.

Here are a few examples of how you can support our Veterans:

  • Provide companionship and emotional support to fellow Veterans and their caregivers
  • Provide relief (sitting with a patient) while the caregiver runs errands or just takes a short break
  • Assisting Veterans in enrolling and accessing VA benefits
  • Participate in our Veteran recognition and pinning ceremonies
  • Assisting with replacing of lost medals and awards

No medical experience is needed! Volunteers DO NOT perform any clinical duties.

Hospice volunteers are people with a giving heart and compassion; so if this sounds like you, we'd love to have you as part of our team! You will receive volunteer orientation and training to help improve the quality of life for others. Come make a difference!
