Hospice of Waterloo Region
The Hospice of Waterloo Region (registered as HOSPICE OF WATERLOO REGION, business number 140415795RR0001) is a Canadian registered charity providing hospice palliative care, grief support, and community education services in Waterloo Region, Ontario. Established in 1993, the organization operates under a "whole person" care model, addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of individuals with life-limiting illnesses, their families, and caregivers.
Services
The hospice delivers care through three primary programs:
- Hospice Care: Includes in-home, hospital, and long-term care support, as well as the 11-bed Cook Family Residence at the Gies Family Centre in North Waterloo. This residential facility serves individuals with a prognosis of fewer than three months to live and Waterloo-Wellington region residency.
- Grief Support: Offers professional counseling, support groups, and specialized programs like bereavement walking groups.
- Education: Provides training for palliative care professionals and community workshops to foster discussions about end-of-life care and grief.
Community Engagement
The organization actively promotes "compassionate communities" by collaborating with workplaces, academic institutions, and faith-based groups to normalize conversations about death, dying, and bereavement. Initiatives include awareness campaigns, skill-building workshops, and partnerships to expand access to palliative resources.
Facilities and Funding
The Gies Family Centre serves as the organization’s main hub, co-located with the Cook Family Residence. The hospice relies on charitable donations and volunteer contributions, with services provided at no cost to clients. While financially transparent, the charity has been noted for its funding reserves covering less than one year of operational costs.
