Welcome to Rosedale Hospice

Rosedale Hospice is our residential end-of-life cancer care facility. It is a quiet, peaceful home where end-of-life cancer patients and their family and friends are cared for in a supportive environment. Rosedale offers a life affirming alternative to hospitalization or dying at home. We focus on quality of life and making what time families have left together as good as possible.

Admission Criteria

Rosedale Hospice is a residential care facility for adult cancer patients who:

• Have been evaluated and referred by palliative care teams in hospitals or home-care programs
• Have discontinued active curative treatment
• Require end-of-life care and who do not want extraordinary measures
• Wish to focus on comfort treatment and for whom active curative treatment has been discontinued

What We Do

We ensure that each patient receives professional, specialized medical and nursing care. Patients are assessed on an on-going basis, with care and pain management plans adapted to respond to the patient's changing condition. Spiritual care and emotional support are available for patients and their family and friends.

Private rooms ensure peace and dignity. Comfortable living and sitting rooms, a library, dining room and non-denominational chapel provide patients and visitors with a variety of quiet places.

Our People

We have a full complement of registered nurses and personal care attendants who are specially trained in end-of-life cancer care. They work together with our medical director and hospice volunteers to ensure that each client and family receives individualized, 24-hour care. Professional counselors and our chaplain are also available as part of the inter-disciplinary team.
