Philip Aziz Centre and Emily’s House Children’s Hospice provide respite, practical, physical, emotional, and spiritual support for people of all ages living with life-limiting illnesses.
Philip Aziz Centre (including the Emily’s House @Home program) provides community-based, in-home support, while Emily’s House Children’s Hospice’s 10-bed pediatric hospice provides respite (day and short-term visits) and palliative care with the warmth and comfort of a child-focused environment.
All our programs and services are free of charge and provided by healthcare professionals and over 300 professionally trained volunteers. Hospice services are centred on our clients and their caregiver’s expressed needs, and are delivered in cooperation with healthcare professional(s) and other support agencies involved in care. At our core is our holistic approach to care that is client centered, focused on quality of life, and dedicated to helping people live each day as fully as possible.
