Hospice Niagara is a charitable organization that focuses on improving the quality of life for people living with life-limiting illnesses, death, dying, grief and loss. We believe that no one should make this journey alone. Through a variety of programs and services, Hospice Niagara is able to provide compassionate comfort and support to families throughout the care continuum. These services are offered free of charge.
Our Staff are exceptional and extraordinary. They demonstrate both passion and compassion in the work that they do every day, thus contributing to our vibrant organizational culture. - Categories
