  Our Programs - Overview
   
 

Perram House is a pioneer in residential hospice care in Toronto. It offers residential palliative care for individuals who have a limited life expectancy. Working with a dedicated nursing, medical and personal support staff with the assistance of trained volunteers, we provide nursing care, personal support, psychosocial and spiritual care placing the client in control of his or her life and care. Our purpose is to provide all people regardless of wealth or social status, a warm home and optimum healthcare in their final days.

Independence in all aspects is encouraged on an individual basis for as long as possible.

Perram House nursing staff and volunteers offer a full range of services including:

   Appropriate medical care

   Personal care – as needed

   Cooking facilities, and if needed, prepared meals, with a focus on good nutrition

   Personalized emotional support that enables the resident to express concerns and feelings

   Spiritual support consistent with the religious beliefs of the resident

   Creative and recreational activities

Further support is provided to caregivers in the home through our Respite Program. We will take palliative individuals for up to 2 weeks to provide relief to caregivers.
