Losing a loved one is the most devastating thing that can happen to us on our personal journey through life.  That’s why Red Deer Hospice cares for our loved ones in their final days.  This time is so precious that absolutely all of it should be devoted to the person you love.  In the video posted here you’ll meet George Demars.   Through his experience you’ll understand what Hospice is all about.

Nearing the end of a much needed expansion, Red Deer Hospice is reaching out to the community for help.  Since Red Deer Hospice opened back in 2005, more than 1,300 residents and their families have been cared for.  With occupancy rates typically exceeding 90 percent, six new private rooms are being added, as well as additional soaker tubs and shower rooms and two large multi-purpose rooms for respite care and day programs.

With this growth it’s also necessary to enhance the kitchen, nursing station, and family areas.

It all points to the important role hospice plays in the community.. and it’s only going to get more important as the addition of 6 rooms means up to 100 more residents and families will attend Red Deer Hospice every year.
