Hospice of Western and Central MA has worked hard to become a level V partner with the We Honor Veterans program-a partnership between the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization (NHPCO), the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), and hospices. This pioneering program focuses on respectful inquiry, compassionate listening, and grateful acknowledgement. By recognizing the unique needs of America's Veterans and their families, our staff, and our Veteran Volunteers learn how to accompany and guide veteran patients through life stories toward a more peaceful ending.

We try and find volunteer role for a Veteran that is as close to home as possible.
