Every day, Heartland Hospice has the distinct honor of providing care to U.S. Military Veterans and their families by a special team of caregivers which includes volunteers. Veteran Hospice Volunteers are important to us as veterans share a common language which builds trust and facilitates compassionate care to our Veteran clients. VETS-TO-VETS- No one understands questions and concerns of U.S. Military Veterans more than a fellow veteran or active-duty personnel. Hospice is a special kind of care designed to provide comfort care as well as spiritual and emotional support for terminally ill patients and their families. It neither hastens nor postpones death: rather it affirms life and acknowledges dying as a normal process. Veteran volunteers provide a supportive presence to our veteran clients by providing friendly visits which may include sharing stories, listening, reading, taking walks, running errands, respite to family members and other client interests. As a volunteer you can donate as much or as little of your time as desired. To find out more about our program, please call 715 214 2485.
