Wherever you are in your palliative care journey, we have got something for you with our day programs—whether you need a moment of respite, connections with others for support or just to have a little bit of fun!
What Is Day Wellness Program?
Every Wednesday, our great room is filled with conversation, laughter, games, storytelling, and a three-course homemade meal. This is a space for you to be yourself in a caring and compassionate home-like setting. At Day Program you will find rest and relaxation, supportive relationships, therapeutic value, and even just plain fun!
The focus is on affirming life and living it to the fullest. Our program is coordinated and staffed by a palliative care specialist and supported by our trained hospice volunteer team. We look forward to meeting you!
Here’s a sample itinerary:
- 10am - 12pm: Games, art and conversations
- 12pm - 1pm: Homemade meal
- 1pm - 2pm: Therapeutic activities (storytelling, music, massage, etc.)
This program is community funded and available at no cost to individuals residing in Greater Hamilton who are living with a serious illness.
