向退伍军人致敬

Proudly supporting active military service members and veterans.

我们尊重退伍军人计划

Covenant 临终关怀 is a Level V partner – the highest designation possible – in the 我们尊重退伍军人程序, a National 临终关怀 and 姑息治疗 Organization and Department of Veterans Affairs initiative that supports veterans and their families during end-of-life care. 这个项目的目标, to care for and honor those who have served when they reach the end of life, is achieved through community partnerships to educate and expand awareness of services and benefits available to veterans and their families during end-of-life care.

约健康 Offers Military Recognition 项目

These include patient 程序s, rewarding career opportunities that fulfill the mission to serve others, and sponsorship of veteran community 程序s and events. 约健康’s military recognition 程序 helps identify veterans as part of the hospitals’ admission process.

Military Recognition Program

约健康’s military recognition 程序 identifies, thanks and supports service members who seek care at our facilities, as well as Covenant HomeCare and hospice. With the patient’s permission, he or she is presented with a special pin, certificates or other acknowledgement for his or her military service.

Since the 程序 was implemented in our hospitals in Nov. 2020, 超过23,000 veterans and service men and women have been treated at a 约健康 hospital. 5人以上,000 pinning ceremonies have been performed for our service members during their stay at our facilities.

In addition to hospital patients, the pinning ceremony and recognition initiative has been in place for more than six years at Covenant HomeCare and 临终关怀, the area’s largest non-profit home health and hospice provider. The organization is a top-tier (Level V) partner with 我们尊重退伍军人, a national awareness and action campaign created to assist veterans in hospice care. As part of the Level V designation, Covenant HomeCare and 临终关怀 continually expands services to better connect with veterans in the community and to provide specialized care for veterans and their families.

This 程序 is very meaningful to our veteran patients. The pinning ceremonies are an opportunity to thank them and acknowledge their commitment at a time when they provided service to others.

When Cindy Winterberger came to me with the idea of recognizing our veterans in the hospital, I never dreamed it would be as impactful as it has become! Our 程序 reaches out to all hospital patients who have served in the armed forces.

I volunteered to be the military recognition coordinator at Claiborne because honoring our veterans is very important to me. It has been such a blessing to me to recognize our veterans at Claiborne Medical Center.
