My husband was there for 2 weeks in November 2024. I thought, at the time, it was too soon to go in but my husband and the hospice doctor disagreed. They took such good care of him and he didn’t suffer with pain which I was afraid he would, if he stayed home with me. My daughter came home from Ottawa and stayed right with him for 10 days, 24/7. Thank God, this place is available for those who are nearing the end of life.

The hospice was an absolute blessing at the end of my mother’s life. They ensured her comfort and freedom from pain. I needed them as much as she did. They honour their patients in life and death. I can’t say how grateful I was to them

This hospice took care of my best friends mom in her last days. They advocated for their patient as well as the family. Made sure she was comfortable in her last days. They cooked whatever meal she desired. If you’re looking for total care of not just the patient but the family too then this is place to go.
