Assessing and Addressing End-of-Life Needs of Veterans
$35.00
The varied experiences of our country’s veterans call for different approaches to end-of-life care. As younger generations of veterans enter hospice and rules around care change, hospices and their staffs face new face challenges. This webinar addresses the needs of veterans and their families at life’s end; recent developments in concurrent palliative and hospice care; and how hospices work with veterans in their communities to provide quality care that honors their service.
