At the end of the harvest, before the dark winter, it is believed that the veil between worlds is thin and the dead can communicate with us.
There are many customs and superstitions at this time of year that pertain to death- whether it is appeasing the aggressive spirits, or honouring our dearly departed.

The Pioneer of Palliative Care in Canada                           🤍🕯🤍

The Pioneer of Palliative Care in Canada 🤍🕯🤍

The Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association (CHPCA) joins the world in mourning the loss of a true pioneer and the "father of palliative care," Dr. Balfour Mount (1939-2025).

Dr. Mount’s legacy is monumental. In 1975, he launched the world’s first Palliative Care Unit in Montreal, a groundbreaking initiative that set the global standard for care. He is credited with coining the term ‘Palliative Care’ to define a novel approach blending hospice, thanatology, and academic medicine, which revolutionized the management of life-limiting illness.

We honour his vision of "whole person care," which emphasizes addressing the physical, psychosocial, existential, and spiritual needs of patients and families. This philosophy continues to shape and inspire every aspect of hospice palliative care across our nation and beyond.

Dr. Mount's commitment to dignity has been recognized by the Order of Canada and continues to guide our community.

We extend our deepest condolences to his wife, family, colleagues, friends, and all those grieving this immense loss.

L'Association canadienne de soins palliatifs (ACSP) se joint au monde pour pleurer la perte d'un véritable pionnier et du « père des soins palliatifs », le Dr. Balfour Mount (1939-2025).

L'héritage du Dr. Mount est monumental. En 1975, il a inauguré à Montréal la toute première Unité de soins palliatifs au monde, une initiative novatrice qui a établi la norme mondiale en matière de soins. On lui doit d'avoir inventé le terme « Soins palliatifs » pour définir une approche inédite alliant l'hospice, la thanatologie et la médecine universitaire, et qui a révolutionné la prise en charge des maladies limitant l'espérance de vie.

Nous saluons sa vision des « soins de la personne globale », qui met l'accent sur la satisfaction des besoins physiques, psychosociaux, existentiels et spirituels des patients et de leurs familles. Cette philosophie continue de façonner et d'inspirer chaque aspect des soins palliatifs et de l'hospice à travers notre pays.

L'engagement du Dr. Mount envers la dignité a été salué par l'Ordre du Canada et continue de guider notre communauté.

Nous offrons nos plus sincères condoléances à son épouse, sa famille, ses collègues, ses amis et toutes les personnes touchées par cette perte immense.

As a hospice nurse my first go-to is rarely medication. I think that our words, our touch, and our presence can often comfort someone in ways that medicine can’t possibly touch.

Being present at the bedside of someone who is dying can offer profound comfort, even without words.

Your presence can:
• Ease fear and loneliness: Simply sitting quietly, holding their hand, or maintaining eye contact can help them feel less alone.
• Provide emotional support: Hearing a familiar voice, even if they are unresponsive, can be deeply reassuring.
• Offer dignity: Just being there acknowledges their life and their importance, which helps uphold their dignity in their final moments.
• Facilitate peace: Your calm presence can create a peaceful environment, helping to ease the transition for both of you.

Sometimes, silence and presence speak louder than any words ever could.

Having said that, it is also very important that medication is available if needed to relieve suffering that cannot be calmed and comforted easily. As a hospice nurse one of the things that I focus on is teaching families and caregivers how to provide care by using verbal and tactile stimuli, assessing the room to see what might be causing discomfort, and understanding medication, the benefits, and making sure that those present are not afraid of it.

How we care for another human being when they are dying starts with understanding the value of our presence, being educated on what to expect, what could and might happen, what you can do personally for this person, and that you feel confident that your questions and curiosities have been answered. Education is key.

Great Opportunity to participate in a research study 👏

What questions do you have around death, dying, and end-of-life care? This survey is part of a project that is exploring older Canadians' understandings of and experiences with death-related information needs. Professor Nicole Dalmer and team are interested in your experiences, lingering questions, and thoughts regarding how you look for, access, and engage with information about end-of-life planning and care.
