Hospice of Waterloo Region

Hospice of Waterloo Region (HWR) strives to create and support a community where no one experiences an end of life journey alone and for more than 26 years has been a  community outreach hospice providing services and support to those with a life limiting illness and their loved ones as well as those who are recently bereaved. Our wide variety of programs and services are provided to clients and family in the community where they live and at the Hospice Family Centre. Our philosophy is to provide comfort and care, to neither hasten or prolong life and to allow a natural death. We believe that supporting each other at end of life is a shared community responsibility and our outreach into the community has focused on engaging not only friends, family, neighbours, and colleagues but the broader community where we live, work and play. It is our goal to support our community to inspire, nurture, and comfort the human spirit in life, death, and bereavement.
