Glendive Volunteers

Volunteers provide the residents with extended families.  There are hundreds of volunteers from all over the state of Montana that give of their time and efforts to make the veterans feel special.  The local volunteers always provide parties for special occasions and parties just because they care.

The facility has special friends that come in and provided the residents with the warm, cuddly licks and friendly wet noses.  Pets and children are the most anticipated visitor for the residents. Families are encouraged to bring in their pets for visits.  They brighten all the lives of residents and staff alike.

 

River behind the facility

The Dawson County High School Industrial Arts Class built a large gazebo for the residents and families to be able enjoy the outdoors and have a place to visit.  This gazebo is a must see structure.  The kids made sure that every service is represented on the gazebo. These classes have also poured all the walk ways in the courtyard, placed a large water fountain in the yard for the birds, wildlife and the watching enjoyment of the residents.

The funds for these projects were donated by various Montana Veterans Service Organizations.  These organizations are very giving to our residents without them the extra’s would not be possible.

Fishing out back

Physician services are provided to the veterans by the Veterans Administration under a contract.  This allows EMVH to provide an in house physician from the Miles City VA Clinic to come once a week to care for the veterans.
