We believe that pain relief is a choice and the
right of each resident as it facilitates optimal comfort, functioning,
and enhances quality of life.
What is Palliative Care?
Palliative Care is the combination of Active and Compassionate therapies
intended to comfort and support individuals who are living with,
or dying from, a progressive, life-threatening illness, or are bereaved.
Our Palliative Care team will provide comprehensive care and pain
management using a multi-disciplinary approach, individualized to
each resident on an ongoing manner.
Our Services include:
- A private, comfortable room with rooming-in option available,
close to the nurses' station
- Palliative Care Volunteers will visit regularly (on their own
time) and provide companionship to family and your loved one.
Volunteers can be identified by a butterfly pin worn on their
clothing.
- Spiritual counselling is available for all denominations.
The Fiddick family is pleased to provide immediate family members
with complimentary meals when visiting a palliative care resident.
