What does it mean to honor Veterans?




Always  be sincere, caring, compassionate and ready and able to listen to what a  Veteran or his or her family member has to share about the situation  they are dealing with. Be supportive and non-judgmental and always validate their feelings and concerns. Be honest, sincere, caring and respectful.

Stoneridge Hospice is proud to be a certified Level Two We Honor Veterans  Partner with Veterans Affairs and other veterans organizations. This  partnership demonstrates our commitment to providing quality care and  services to veterans and their families in our communities.


We  are honored to care for veterans with advanced illness, wherever they  live - in their family homes, assisted living residences, skilled  nursing facilities or hospitals.


To learn more about the We Honor Veterans program, please click here.


As  a We Honor Veteran (WHV) partner, Stoneridge Hospice is focused on  ensuring that excellent care at the end of life is available for our  nation’s veterans and that support is available for their families. We  use the WHV military checklist to access and provide individual  education to each veteran and family. This WHV tool allows us to  disseminate the current end-of-life needs as it relates to the veteran  and their family. 


The  following activities and events are examples of the many resources  Stoneridge Hospice provides to make a positive impact in the  veteran's end-of-life care:

Veteran Volunteer Program

Our  Veteran Volunteer Program pairs recruited Veteran Volunteers with  hospice patients who have been identified as veterans. Once paired with  hospice patients who also have military experience, Veteran Volunteers  have the unique ability to relate and connect with each patient, thereby  creating an environment where life reflection and healing may occur.

   

Veteran Pinning Ceremony

A  Veteran Pinning Ceremony is an opportunity to publicly acknowledge the  military service and sacrifices made by the veteran and his/her family.  The ceremony, conducted by a Veteran Volunteer, honors and recognizes a  hospice patient’s service to our country and helps them and their loved  ones find closure and peace at the end of life.

               

Veteran Volunteers

Veteran  Volunteers are essential to the delivery of quality hospice care.  Veterans are a part of a distinct culture with their own common language  and experience. When Veterans interact, their common language and  experience can form a strong and meaningful bond. The camaraderie  created between veterans has proven to be supportive for all involved.
