Welcome to Victoria Hospice

Victoria Hospice is a registered charity that has, since 1980, provided end-of-life care focused on palliative treatment. Our nurses, counsellors, spiritual caregivers, physicians and trained volunteers provide comfort for the patient and support for the family, rather than a cure for progressive and life-limiting illness.

Care is offered in patients’ homes, within our 17-bed in-patient unit, and as specific medical consultation to patients in other health care facilities. Over 400 trained volunteers provide companionship and support. Victoria Hospice offers bereavement support to families for up to one year following at death.

Roughly 50% of Victoria Hospice's annual operating costs are not covered by our health care system, and must be funded through community donations to our Victoria Hospice and Palliative Care Foundation.
