We recognize the deep bond formed between individuals who’ve served our nation. Our innovative Veteran-to-Veteran Volunteer Program focuses on pairing Veteran volunteers with hospice patients who are also Veterans. This mutual understanding fosters a unique connection, enabling life review, mutual respect, and healing.

Why are Veteran Volunteers Vital?

  • They uphold the values of quality hospice care.
