Home visiting hub

Pilgrims Hospice Society is pleased to offer a Home Visiting Hub Program, which provides home visits from primary palliative care physicians. This service bridges the gap for those living with a life-threatening progressive illness who still live at home but do not have access to a primary care provider.

Meet the Team

Our team of physicians and allied healthcare staff support clients throughout Edmonton. They work closely with the palliative Home Care nursing team and palliative care specialists in Edmonton to support clients during their journey with a life-threatening and progressive illness.
