Why Hospice and Palliative Care?

The people of this community deserve to have the best possible care when dealing with a life-threatening illness. They deserve options that will allow them to make the most of every precious moment. This includes the time at the end of life. That’s why we have raised the funds needed to build a Hospice for the people of our community. This residence provides a home-like environment for those needing end-of-life care.

With this dream realized, we have refocused our efforts on maintaining and broadening the comfort and compassionate support we provide for patients and their families when it is most needed. At any one time there are approximately 250 patients in the palliative care service in Cape Breton County in An Cala, Hospice, hospitals, long-term care, and at home.

The Society continues to support our music therapy, equipment and family financial assistance, and volunteer and staff education programs. The total annual expenditures of the Society on programs and Hospice maintenance is approximately $550,000. Additionally, we are currently refreshing the An Cala Palliative Care Unit that opened at the regional hospital in 2008. The Society has committed to investing $225,000 in this project.

With your support, we can continue our Circle of Caring for patients and
their families!
