❄️ Well… Mother Nature has made it clear she’s not quite done with us yet! With all the snow she’s generously delivered over the past few weeks, we’ve made the difficult decision to postpone this event due to weather.
Thank you so much for your understanding—we’re disappointed to postpone, but safety comes first. We look forward to sharing a new date once Mother Nature decides to give us a break! ☃️

Our Story

At Hospice Prince Edward, our 3 bed residential hospice in Prince Edward County, we provide high quality, compassionate care and support to patients and their families as they deal with a life limiting illness. Since opening our doors in 2013 we have served 196 clients in our residence and 529 more through our outreach programs.

Our mission is to provide Qualify of Life, Dignity in Death and Grief and Bereavement Support for all those living with or affected by a life limiting illness. We support the journey of living with dying. All of our programs and services are provided at no cost to clients, their families or caregivers. Here is what people have to say about their experience:

“Your hospice facility provided our large family a home-like setting to gather, where we alternately cried, laughed and grieved”

“While at Hospice, he was treated so well and that gave me some peace and let me be his wife, not his caregiver”
