Dunamis Hospice and Palliative Care Inc. are to improve the quality of life for both the patient and their family, our services are top professionals who maximize comfort for a person who is terminally ill by reducing pain and addressing physical, psychological and social needs. To help families, hospice care also provides counselling, palliative care and practical support.

Unlike other medical care, the focus of hospice care isn’t to cure the underlying disease. The goal is to support the highest quality of life possible for whatever time remains.

Our services are mostly provided at home — with a family member typically serving as the primary caregiver. However, hospice care is also available at hospitals, nursing homes, assisted living facilities and dedicated hospice facilities.

No matter where hospice care is provided, sometimes it’s necessary to be admitted to a hospital. For instance, if a symptom can’t be managed by the hospice care team in a home setting, a hospital stay might be needed.
