COVID 19 Response

COVID 19 Response

These are such uncertain times we find ourselves in and as things continue to evolve in regard to the COVID-19 virus. We ask for everyone’s understanding and cooperation in order to keep our staff and those we serve safe and healthy.
Our team is committed to leading the way in finding innovative ways to support our community; however, all in person appointments and events are suspended effective immediately. We will be available by calling our office at (902) 893-3265 and will help any way that we can!
Please stay tuned for updates on our programs and services as we respond to this challenge. For now, one of the most important roles we can play is disseminating official information on how people can keep themselves and their loved ones safe. Government websites at all levels are updating information regularly.
Thank you!

We are thrilled to partner with local artist, Megan Johnson (muse by mej) on these unique and stunning condolence cards. Thanks to Megan for sharing her talent and her story: “proud to announce my latest collaboration - a set of cards in support of @cehhospice.(tw: death)many of you know that i lost my 55 year old father earlier this year to suicide. when i needed some clarity and outside perspective on this new painful reality, i sought the services of hospice. the warm environment, friendly faces, applicable advice and compassionate listening that i found were a welcome bit of comfort.when they asked if i would be interested in designed a range of sympathy/greeting cards to benefit the organization, it was an immediate yes for me. it’s an honour to use my art to help hospice & the group of individuals behind it who offer so much to our community members in need of a shoulder to lean on.we went with this wave theme as many conversations surrounding grief use ocean analogies - the ebbs and flows, the stormy seasons, the peace of finding solace in something bigger than you. all 4 designs - the deep blue waves, the calm beach, the sunset and sunrise - each convey a different emotion and i hope you connect with them and with the story behind them as deeply we all have. each card or set of 4 comes with an insert thoughtfully prepared by the hospice team to offer some helpful guidance on writing meaningful sympathy cards - something that never gets easier with age or experience. whether it’s a hello for a sunny occasion or a hug in a stormy one, i hope these waves can help spread the same sentiments of compassion, support, and empathy that hospice embodies so well.i will have these with me in singles & 4-packs at East Coast Artisans Show tomorrow evening, and look for them at hospice events going forward (check out their page for info on the angels remembered tree lighting coming up!) proceeds of course going to the @cehhospice ❤️” ...

"With no government funding, the hospice society relies heavily on fundraisers and donations... Harrison says this change has already allowed the team to put their focus back on developing programs and services."
