The Hospice was better than we could have imagined on every level and we were so grateful to them for allowing my dad to pass in such a dignified and comfortable manner.

We want to inform everyone that starting Tuesday August 21st, Hospice Wellington will be undergoing some emergency restorations that will temporarily affect the quality of your visit.
Our flat roof, which houses the facility Heating and Air Conditioning units, is in immediate need of replacement. As of tomorrow, we will temporarily be without air conditioning throughout most of the building for approximately 7 days. In order to maintain the comfort of our residents, the air control inside each of our 10 resident rooms will still be operational throughout the project.
On Wednesday August 22nd, the parking in our lower lot will not be available throughout the day. This unfortunately includes the accessible parking spot. We will re-open this area immediately after the crane has left the site. The crane will be returning in the near future to lift the air conditioning units back onto the new roof, and we will keep everyone posted as that date is confirmed.
Our contractors will do their absolute best to keep noise to a minimum throughout the project and Hospice Wellington sincerely appreciates your patience! If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact Jason Dodge at 519-836-3921 ext. 237 or email jason.dodge@hospicewellington.org

Caring for an individual with a life-limiting illness can be hard. We offer wellness services, one-to-one support and support groups to help you care for your loved one, while caring for yourself.
Grief is a normal reaction to loss. Our grief and bereavement services include wellness services, one-to-one support and support groups, including support for adults, families and children.
We rely heavily on donations to support our programs and services, but also on the commitment and hard work of our many volunteers.

I think of my experience at Hospice Wellington “like a warm nest” built by the love of a caring community; there to house and nurture the weak in need of shelter. The nest surrounds the dying and their family, providing a place to be cared for, to sustain and keep us, until our loved ones fly away. Having had time in the nest leaves us strong enough to fly on our own…
