Hospice Services and Palliative Care
Hospice Services
Hospice services are focused on life and quality of life, not death. We provide practical and emotional support to residents of Haliburton County in their own homes, in the hospital, and in Long-term Care.
All our volunteers are highly trained through Hospice and Palliative Care Ontario to support clients and their loved ones. After the death of a loved one, we can provide one-to-one bereavement support to family members to help them cope with their loss.
Palliative Care
The Palliative Care Community Team is a multidisciplinary team that provides supports in the home when a diagnosis of a life-limiting illness has been received. The Patient Navigator will work with other members of the HHHS Team, Community Programs, and the Home and Community Support Services to ensure that clients/families are receiving the services and information required to support the highest quality of life up to, and including, end of life care.
