More Details

Hospice palliative care is provided in any unit of the hospital, and in palliative care units. These units care for patients with complex symptom management or other distressing problems. Anywhere in the hospital, your medical care team can work with hospice palliative care professionals to address your comfort and help plan your care.

Talk to hospital staff if you have any questions. If you use our services in your home and think you may need to go into the hospital, contact your health care team.

If you are currently receiving palliative care services, or if you are a caregiver/family member to someone receiving palliative care and require decision making, emotional and clinical support overnight, please click here.

For more information, see the “Overnight Telephone Support for Clients Receiving Palliative Care” brochure.
