Providence Care is committed to providing quality palliative, hospice and end-of-life care, as well as compassionate support for people who are dying, and their families, through all stages of life. This includes care that addresses physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs for persons who are dying and their families, and delivering effective and timely pain and symptom management as outlined in the Health Ethics Guide, the foundational ethics resource used by Providence Care and all Catholic health care organizations in Canada.
As a Catholic healthcare provider, Providence Care does not provide medical assistance in dying, physician assisted death, assisted suicide or voluntary euthanasia
Providence Care supports the Canadian Society of Palliative Care Physicians’ aim to reduce suffering for patients, clients or residents and their families.
