WE CARE FOR CHANGING LIVES
Hospice Quinte changes the lives of the terminally ill, their families, and the bereaved for the better by providing individuals, their families, and caregivers with compassionate end of life care, by attending to their physical, psychosocial, and practical needs, and offering empathetic care to those who are grieving.
All Hospice Quinte programs and services are provided at no charge by compassionate and well-trained staff and volunteers.
Our service area includes Quinte West, Belleville, Tyendinaga Township, Deseronto, and the Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory.
We believe everyone in the Quinte Region, and their loved ones, should be provided with compassionate care, in the setting of their choice, and have their end of life journey treated with empathy and respect.
Hospice Quinte has been providing compassionate care in our communities since 1985.
