Notre souhait des FĂȘtes le plus cher concerne les ressources nĂ©cessaires pour rĂ©pondre aux besoins actuels et futurs en matiĂšre de soins palliatifs. 🌟

Nous avons besoin de suffisamment de lits pour les soins palliatifs, d'un soutien adéquat aux soins à domicile et d'un effectif solide et durable. Sans investissement, les lacunes que nous observons aujourd'hui ne feront que s'accentuer.

Nous avons besoin d'un systÚme doté de ressources adéquates pour garantir que personne n'attende inutilement des soins, qu'aucun individu ou aucune famille ne se sente abandonné et qu'aucun fournisseur ne soit confronté à l'épuisement professionnel. Comment pouvez-vous contribuer à faire de ceci une réalité?

1ïžâƒŁ Communiquez avec vos reprĂ©sentants Ă©lus pour leur faire part de l'importance de cette question.
2ïžâƒŁ Soutenez l'ACSP par un don afin que nous puissions continuer Ă  faire du plaidoyer.
3ïžâƒŁ Impliquez-vous auprĂšs d'une maison de soins palliatifs ou d'un organisme de communautĂ©s compatissantes.

Ensemble, nous faisons avancer la compassion. 💞

Our grandest holiday wish is for the necessary resources to meet both current and future demand for hospice palliative care. We need enough hospice beds, adequate home care support, and a strong, sustainable workforce. Without investment, the gaps we see today will only widen.

We need a well-resourced system to ensure no one waits unnecessarily for care, no individual or family feels abandoned, and no provider faces burnout. How can you help make this a reality?

1ïžâƒŁ Contact your elected representatives to share why this matters.
2ïžâƒŁ Support CHPCA with a donation so we can continue to advocate.
3ïžâƒŁ Get involved with a hospice or compassionate communities organization.

Together, we move compassion forward. 💞

Our seventh wish is care for every short life. 💛

Every child with a life-limiting illness deserves specialized, consistent, compassionate pediatric palliative care, along with support for their family. This care is a holistic approach aimed at improving quality of life, relieving suffering, and providing active, total care for the child’s body, mind, and spirit.

Let's affirm the value of every child's life by investing in this essential care. Join the movement and learn how to advocate for better access across Canada: loom.ly/xd2kP3o.

Notre sixiĂšme souhait est le cadeau transformateur de la littĂ©ratie du deuil. 💗

Les maladies graves, la mort et le deuil sont des expĂ©riences profondes. Nous souhaitons que tous les Canadiens acquiĂšrent les connaissances et la confiance nĂ©cessaires pour offrir du rĂ©confort et Ă©couter sans jugement. Il ne suffit pas de s'attendre Ă  ce que les personnes en deuil cherchent du soutien; nous devons nous responsabiliser mutuellement ainsi que les communautĂ©s oĂč nous vivons pour l'offrir, afin que personne n'ait Ă  vivre son deuil seul.

Vous voulez faire les premiers pas vers cette possibilité? Suivez un cours Derniers Secours et dotez-vous des connaissances et de la confiance nécessaires pour soutenir les autres avec plus de compréhension et de courage. Apprenez-en davantage à https://loom.ly/AT7aezU.

Our Story - Notre Histoire

The CHPCA is the national voice for Hospice Palliative Care in Canada. Advancing and advocating for quality end-of-life/hospice palliative care in Canada, its work includes public policy, public education and awareness. Established in 1991, its volunteer Board of Directors is composed of hospice palliative care workers and volunteers from Canadian provinces and territories as well as members-at-large.

The Canadian Palliative Care Association (CPCA) was formally established as a national charitable organization in November 1991 and opened the first office in Ottawa in February 1994. The association’s first newsletter “AVISO” was published in both official languages in June, 1992.

Today, the Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association is the national voice for hospice palliative care in Canada. It is a national charitable non-profit association whose mission is to provide leadership in hospice palliative care in Canada. We strive to achieve this mission by supporting research, promoting education and training, improving public awareness of hospice palliative care, and by advocating for increased programs and services. CHPCA works in close partnership with other national organizations and will continue to move forward with the goal of ensuring that all Canadians, regardless of where they may live, have equal access to quality hospice palliative care for themselves and their family.
