ABOUT OUR SOCIETY
The Hospice Society of Greater Halifax, formed in 2001 with its objective and main goal of establishing freestanding residential hospice facilities within Capital Health District.
The Society is a non-sectarian, mainly volunteer, registered charity. Our members come from many walks of life but share the common belief that every individual has the right to expect the best possible quality of life until the very end of life.
People who are dying have physical, emotional, spiritual and social needs, which are not being met in spite of the vast resources of our health care system. It is our belief that these needs can be met by the concept of hospice, which is based in the community, cares for the whole person and respects individual choice in defining the quality of life.
The Society's second purpose is to bring those needs to the attention of the government and community at large.
We need your support to make this happen. For more information about hospice and palliative care follow the links or call us at 902-446-0929 or e-mail us at hospice@eastlink.ca
