Our ten resident suites offer warm and inviting spaces where friends and family can gather together and spend meaningful time in the last hours, days, or weeks of their loved ones' lives. Hospice provides wrap-around care for the palliative individual and their family, supporting physical, emotional, and spiritual needs.
The compassionate, patient-centred care that Hospice provides is made possible by a multidisciplinary team of nurses, personal support workers, counselors, spiritual care providers, housekeeping staff, and a chef, supported by a group of loyal and empathetic volunteers.
