Connecting With Veterans Through Compassion And Gratitude
For Veterans and their families, questions about grief support, palliative care and hospice care can bring uncertainty. Having someone available to listen, provide information and help explain available resources can make navigating those questions a little easier.
Pikes Peak Hospice & Palliative Care is committed to supporting Veterans in our community, and Veteran Liaison Sonya Bergeron helps make those connections possible.
A Welcoming Place to Find Answers
On the second Tuesday of each month, Sonya spends time in the lobby of Mt. Carmel Veterans Service Center in Colorado Springs, talking with Veterans who have questions about grief support, palliative care or hospice care.
These visits provide an opportunity for Veterans to ask questions, learn about available services and have conversations about care and support in a welcoming setting.
Whether someone is seeking information for themselves, a family member or a fellow Veteran, having a knowledgeable resource can help them better understand their options.
A Small Gesture With a Meaningful Message
