Oasis at The End of Life
Join HCA's free learning journey to see how hospice care brings dignity and hope to patients. Educators can register by email at least one month in advance.
While serious illness, death and dying are one of the topics furthest away from the minds of youths today, it is one that should be introduced and made comfortable with, for death is a natural part of life. It is too commonly misunderstood that hospice care is one of despair, gloom and hopelessness. But in actuality, hospice care seeks to bring comfort, dignity and hope into the very limited time patients have with their family members. Hospice care is truly about life.
Join HCA for a learning journey to our day hospice – a day care centre for the terminally ill – and witness how life-giving and hopeful hospice care can be. The learning journey will entail a tour of the facility and a context-setting presentation on what hospice and palliative care is and the types of services available. Together, let us explore Oasis where every life is valued, cherished, and celebrated with utmost care and compassion.
Details
The Learning Journey will feature a 1hour talk on palliative and hospice care followed by a 30 minute tour of our Oasis@Outram Day Hospice.
Learning Objectives
Together we can make a positive impact and redefine how we approach end-of-life care, ensuring that every person's last chapter is filled with dignity and compassion.
