Derek, a patient in our Palliative Care Unit, has always had a special connection with his horses. When his family asked if a visit could be arranged, our team came together to help make it happen.

With the support of his loved ones and care team, Derek was able to spend precious time with his horses—surrounded by love, connection, and peace.

Palliative care is about more than managing symptoms. It’s about honouring what matters most to each person. Supporting their comfort, dignity, and wishes at every stage.

This moment is just one example of how our team delivers compassionate, personalized care to bring comfort and connection when it’s needed most. 💛

Hot weather can sneak up on you, so it’s important to stay hydrated throughout the day. Drinking water is key, but did you know some fruits can also help you beat the heat?

Water-rich fruits like watermelon, strawberries, oranges, and cucumbers are a refreshing (and delicious) way to stay hydrated. They’re full of vitamins, minerals, and water to keep you energized and feeling your best! ☀️🍉
