Today’s guest Dr. Qwynn Galloway-Salazar is a Veteran, death doula, compassionate educator, and the founder of In Their Honor, a national initiative raising awareness and addressing Veterans' unique challenges as they approach the end of life. Qwynn is also the spouse of a combat veteran and understands the role of veteran caregivers.

1 in 4 Medicare hospice patients is a U.S. military veteran - a quarter of the Medicare hospice population. Those veterans have special needs when it comes to the end of their lives. Qwynn recognizes the importance of identifying moral injury, a history of combat service, PTSD, and events of military sexual trauma (for both female and male veterans). Discussion of suicidal ideation and depression should also be a part of their end of life care. Often veterans have terminal illnesses that are related to their military service, including Agent Orange and burn pit exposure. The needs of veteran caregivers are unique as well. Their emotional response and grief may include resentment, depression, anger, guilt, and regret.
