How we can help you

Compassion and comfort is the focus of Hospice Care Ottawa. Our services are provided at no charge. We offer emotional and social support to individuals facing a life-limiting illness and living at home through our Day Hospice and In-Home Support programs. When being at home is no longer possible, Hospice Care Ottawa provides 24 hour care in a home-like and peaceful environment. Bereavement Care is also available to those who are coping with a loss.

Delivery of services is made possible through the support of a small dedicated staff, many trained volunteers and generous donors.

I look forward to my time [at Day Hospice]. It's a time to forget what I am living with each day. Also it provides respite for my spouse. He knows I am in a safe and caring place for a few hours. - said by a Day Hospice Guest

She is such a wonderful lady, so helpful. We love to chat and we sit and read. She's got passion. We have lots of laughs which is good. She is absolutely phenomenal.
