SPEAKER AT OUR NEXT MEETING

Hospice 101 — More Than a Bed

Alexandra Allen is from Hospice Waterloo Region, some notes from her:

For the past three decades, Hospice Waterloo Region has been supporting people and their loved ones through life-limiting illness, death and bereavement through a number of community programs, and in the past three years has expanded support to include a 10-bed hospice residence.

However, most people really don’t know what hospice palliative care is and/or how we can support someone who is dying and their loved ones.

We invite you to join us as we explore what hospice palliative care is and what Hospice programs and services look like in the Region of Waterloo and surrounding townships.

PERSONAL VIGNETTE: Also in this meeting, Jim Ott will be delivering his personal vignette.

LUNCH BUNCH: After the meeting, all members are invited to have lunch (at their own cost) at a local restaurant. A great way to get to know your fellow members.
