The role of the Hospice Veteran Volunteer is to honor our veteran patients at end of life by delivering/presenting the patient and their families with a Certificate and Pin honoring them for their service. The veteran volunteer will also deliver a packet of helpful information for veterans and their families at end of life. The patient and family are accepting of the Hospice veteran volunteer’s visit and the volunteer is provided with all of the necessary information and training to provide this service.
