Upcoming Event:
2024 HEARTS GALA
Join us on February 9th 2024 at Universal Eventspace for a night to remember!
This year’s gala aims to raise $1 Million – a goal that will enable Hospice Vaughan to continue to offer all our programs and services free of charge, ensuring comprehensive and compassionate hospice palliative care for all Vaughan residents, whenever and wherever they may need it. We are planning a beautiful evening celebrating life, love, and legacy, and would love to see you there!
What is hospice care?
Hospice care is a compassionate approach to end-of-life support, focusing on enhancing the quality of life for individuals with life-limiting illnesses. It offers holistic care, managing physical symptoms and providing emotional, psychological, and spiritual support. At Hospice Vaughan, we value patients’ dignity and empower them to make choices about their care.
It is our goal to offer a dignified journey through the final stages of life, emphasizing comfort, peace, and meaningful moments for patients and their families and loved ones.
A hub for hospice palliative care
Our hospice palliative care programs help those facing life-limiting illness to live fully, while supporting their loved ones. Our palliative approach is focused holistically on physical, psychological, social and spiritual care to improve quality of life whether that is weeks, months or years.
It is not just for the last days or weeks of life, hospice palliative care is about having the best quality of life for however long life remains.
Our programs and services are provided to people of all ages, free of charge.
