Company Description

The Shuswap Hospice Society supports those who are dealing with death, diagnosis and grief along with the associated emotional realities of that process. We provide compassionate care to those living with a life-limiting illness, as well as grief and bereavement support to the families and friends of those who have lost loved ones, caregivers, and anyone impacted by diagnosis or loss.

Our services are provided free to anyone who needs them. No referrals are needed! We focus on the individual needs of each person as they contact us, and support the rights of all persons to receive consistent physical, emotional and spiritual assistance to maintain individuality and dignity while facing illness and bereavement.

We offer continuing grief and bereavement support to the families and friends of those who have lost loved ones through one on one or group sessions.

We are integral members of the End-Of-Life Palliative Care Team in the Shuswap.

Hospice is a patient-centered form of palliative/end-of-life care which aims to make the last months of life as comfortable and peaceful as possible for patients and their caregivers. Hospice strives to improve quality of life at the end of life, not only for patients, but also for their family and friends. The patient, family and volunteer caregivers are considered an integral unit.

Hospice is not a place – it’s a concept.

The focus is on caring, not curing
on life, not death. Quality of life, family wellness, community involvement and personal dignity are all part of the compassionate and progressive vision of Hospice.
