Edmonton's first free-standing residential community hospice.
The Roozen Family Hospice Centre is Edmonton's first free-standing residential community hospice. The Roozen Family Hospice Centre, a purpose-built residential community hospice, has always been the long-term strategic vision of Pilgrims Hospice Society. While the community hospice model is celebrated worldwide as an exceptional and cost-effective model for end of life care, in Alberta, there are only community hospices in Red Deer, Calgary, and Okotoks.
Embodying the best in end-of-life care models from across the country, the Roozen Family Hospice Centre will offer wrap-around support, free of charge, to individuals and families dealing with any stage of end-of-life. Programs and services will include all of Pilgrims Hospice’s established community support programs in addition to 24/7 residential hospice palliative care in a purpose-built home-like environment.
