About Burnaby Hospice Society
The leading cause of death in Canada is …. life! Canadians today avoid talking about death until it is absolutely necessary.
We have become so detached from death that many are lacking the tools to process death and to support our family, friends, and co-workers who are dealing with the death of a loved one. Many families can no longer support each other through the end-of-life journey and rely on healthcare professionals for assistance. Yet healthcare has also evolved with a focus of preserving and extending life rather than teaching how to accept and process death. How do we connect with and support each other when the environment we live in is biased against deep conversations around death? Here at the Burnaby Hospice Society (BHS), we are focused on supporting our community through the end-of-life journey and the normal stages of grief and bereavement that follow. Best of all? All our services are provided at no cost to our clients.
