HopeWest participates in the We Honor Veterans<\/strong> program. It is a national group of hospice organizations on a mission to learn how to serve Veterans through the challenges they may be facing from illness, isolation, or traumatic life experience. The group is a partnership with VAMC and other veteran organizations to provide end-of-life services to our heroes.<\/p>\n Being a member of the national program helps build professional capacity to provide quality care for those who have served our country, provides networking opportunities with other participating hospices, and encourages development of best practices for providing care.<\/p>\n \u201cWe recognize those who served and genuinely appreciate the sacrifices they made for this country. At HopeWest we understand that veterans may have unique needs as they age, and we are honored that they come to us for care. Our staff and volunteers are provided with ongoing education to better serve our veteran patients,\u201d said Lisa Ortner, HopeWest Director of Volunteer Services.<\/p>\n Upon admission, each HopeWest Veteran patient who wishes to be acknowledged will receive special recognition including: Flags are placed at both campuses in Grand Junction on Memorial Day, the 4th of July, and Veterans Day to honor those who have served.\u202f Offices in Delta, Meeker, Montrose, and Plateau Valley also commemorate those dates in other ways and have designated parking at HopeWest buildings to honor our cherished veterans.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|30px||30px” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”|0px||0px”

The committee\u00a0is comprised of staff and volunteers devoted to\u00a0recognizing veterans, enhancing education based\u00a0on veteran\u2019s needs, identifying resources and\u00a0collaborating with our local community.<\/p>\n Just recently Dick Johnson, a patient in the hospice\u00a0program, was recognized for his service while\u00a0staying at the HopeWest Hospice Care Center.\u00a0\u201cThey presented my dad Dick with a certificate\u00a0of thanks signed by all the staff, gave a speech in\u00a0his honor, draped a patriotic quilt \u2013 handmade by\u00a0volunteers \u2013 over his lap and pinned a double flag pin\u00a0on his chest,\u201d said Darcy Michael, daughter of Dick\u00a0Johnson. \u201cWe were impressed the whole staff came\u00a0in and the ceremony was very heartfelt.\u201d<\/p>\n Dick was very moved by the experience. \u201cThe staff\u00a0recognizing me, I think it would mean a great deal to\u00a0any soldier that served this country.

As you walk into their living room, military photos grace the main wall. It\u2019s there that you can see all the generations who\u2019ve protected our country and freedom. If fact, four generations of the Arnold\u2019s loved ones have served our county in all branches of the armed forces. Their three daughters even married servicemen.<\/p>\n For George, it was the Air Force. He enlisted in 1968 followed by an Army Guard Post in 1975. While in the Air Force he was trained in explosive ordnance disposal and took three tours in Vietnam. Following his time in the Air Force, George worked as a machinist and relocated from Mississippi to Grand Junction where he met his wife Joy and raised a blended family of six children.<\/p>\n Today, his family is still close with the support of HopeWest. George suffered a stroke and has had several heart related health problems in the years since. \u201cHopeWest has allowed us to remain in our home,\u201d said Joy. \u201cMuch of what HopeWest does is for the caregiver \u2013 they just do so much. We don\u2019t feel alone anymore because I always have someone to call, day or night, when I need help. Our nurse can even do blood draws right here at our house.\u201d<\/p>\n George and Joy live with George\u2019s mother and Joy\u2019s mother and father. And of course, their two dogs who can regularly be found cuddling up to George. Staying home allows George to enjoy his favorite pastimes too. You can often find him out in his hobby shed working on one project or another.<\/p>\n This summer, George was honored with a veteran pinning ceremony by HopeWest. With his wife and mother by his side, George\u2019s HopeWest care team presented him with a patriotic pin and beautiful lap quilt to honor his service to our country. The quilt held special meaning as it also brought back fond memories of his childhood. \u201cGeorge chose the quilt with a rail fence pattern because it reminded him of the quilts his grandmother used to make and one he used to sleep under as a child,\u201d said his HopeWest Social Worker, Cindy Webb. \u201cThe way these patriotic quilts touch veteran\u2019s lives, it\u2019s just incredible. It\u2019s so rewarding to give back to them after what they\u2019ve done for our country.\u201d<\/p>\n And the feeling is mutual. \u201cWe feel blessed by HopeWest,\u201d said Joy. \u201cThe care is unbelievably wonderful and what they did for George was so meaningful for our entire family.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" HopeWest tiene el honor de satisfacer las necesidades \u00fanicas de los veteranos y sus familias ofreciendo orientaci\u00f3n y recursos para una experiencia de atenci\u00f3n de la m\u00e1s alta calidad.
