Valley Hospice Foundation
    

We have learned that living with life-threatening illness is tough, demanding and intense for loved ones as well as the patient. But with practical, emotional, and spiritual support through all the stages of illness and bereavement, loved ones can also experience privileged moments of special communication, growth, and even joy. Such moments can be a shared gift.

(Source: The Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association and the hospice palliative care movement, in partnership with The GlaxoSmithKline Foundation, launched the Living Lessons® campaign to open that public dialogue and to promote understanding of the quality care that is possible at the end of life.)

Our Mission and Vision


The Mission Statement of the Valley Foundation for Hospice is:

“To establish a residential hospice in the Annapolis Valley for those living with, or dying from, a life limiting illness and to serve those who care for them.”

 

  1. To raise the funds to build, equip and furnish the hospice facility;
  2. To build upon the growing base of visibility and respect for the organization as a community partner and secure the funds required to operate the hospice as a pilot project;
  3. To position the organization for future costs;
  4. To cooperate with other agencies/bodies whose responsibilities include similar objectives.

 

“Our vision is a residential hospice which will include a resource centre for learning opportunities for professionals and volunteers who work with dying people and provide space for creative support programs and complementary therapies that are essential to improving the life of a dying person and those who are close to them.”
