More Details

Hospice Prince Edward came about through the extraordinary work of people who saw a need in the county. In 1989, a group led by Mark Davis, Wendy Davis, and Donna Joyce, came together to form COPE…HELP FOR THE BEREAVED. COPE was incorporated in March 1990 and became a registered charitable organization.

The Prince Edward Palliative Care Association formed in 1996 by Dr. Graham Burke, a general practitioner with an interest in palliative care. The two organizations amalgamated to become Hospice Prince Edward in September 2000. Volunteer-run home visiting programs have been offered since 1998. These programs have served hundreds of patients in the community through home-visiting programs. In August of 2013, the 3 bed residential hospice opened on Downes Avenue.
