Hospice of the Upstate has joined with We Honor Veterans, a national program to recognize our veteran patients’ service to our country and ensure these men and women receive the benefits, resources
and end
of life care that they deserve. Our staff learns to identify the unique needs of these families and the various resources available to veterans through the Veterans Association.
Knowing that their life’s meaning and legacy is recognized is an important part of our patients’ hospice care. Upon admission, our veteran patients are proudly pinned by fellow veteran volunteers.
We also acknowledge veteran patients with special gifts on Memorial Day, Independence Day and Veterans Day.
We feel so honored to be able to serve our veteran patients and thank them for their service to our country.
