Amedisys hospice teams are specially qualified to care for veterans at the end of life with so many of our care centers certified with the We Honor Veterans program, a national awareness campaign by the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization and the Department of Veteran Affairs.  Veterans have unique challenges at the end of life, including dealing with PTSD, chronic pain from the physical demands of military service, depression and traumatic grief and survivor's guilt.  Beyond caring for these needs, our teams go above and beyond to honor those who served our country. Here are just two examples from our team in Elizabethton, Tenn.
