VITAS wants to enlist your services to care for terminally ill veterans living at home, in nursing homes, assisted living communities and medical centers. Volunteers aren't required to be veterans; just have a desire to remember, honor and support America's living heroes.

VITAS Veteran Volunteers visit veteran patients; run errands; help veterans apply for benefits and learn about available assistance; help replace lost or stolen military medals by contacting appropriate agencies; record a veteran's reminiscences; provide telephone support; attend or help plan activities celebrating Memorial Day and Veteran's Day; educate veteran's groups about hospice services by speaking at their meetings.
