We Honor Veteran's Program

Frederick Health Hospice is grateful to our United States veterans and
their service to our country. Through the We Honor Veterans program, which
is a collaboration between the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization
and the Department of Veterans Affairs, we have trained our staff to be
highly sensitive to the unique needs of our nation’s veterans.
How We Honor Veterans
We provide compassionate and respectful support to veterans and their families.
Each veteran who receives hospice care benefits from:
- Bereavement counselors to help with grief
- Social workers to bring psychosocial support
- Chaplains for religious and spiritual support
Veteran Liaison
As a result of a generous grant from the Kalhert Foundation,
https://www.thekahlertfoundation.org/, Frederick Health Hospice now has Veteran Liaison staff members to offer
comradeship, support and assistance to the veteran and their family. This
can include:
- Providing information about state and VA benefits such as Aid and Attendance,
pensions, cemeteries, monuments and military honors
- Assistance in obtaining discharge documents, records, medals and awards
- Recognition ceremony that includes presentation of a certificate of appreciation
and veteran pin
- Visits from veteran volunteers
