Our Philosophy
The final stages of life are as important as all other stages, deserving presence, respect and dignity as well as freedom of choice. We provide care which emphasizes:
- Principles of death with dignity and grace
- Palliative care (comfort care)
- Individual’s control over life
- Alleviation of fears of dying alone
- Support for family and loved ones before, during and following death
