Community Palliative Care Pathway — Connecting You With the Right Care, When You Need it.
​
The Community Palliative Care Pathway provides a coordinated way for individuals and families to access palliative care support, including Andy’s House at Home. Through collaboration with our community partners, we help ensure each person receives the right care, at the right time, based on their unique needs and preferences.
​
Individuals can access the pathway through a referral from their healthcare provider or by self-referring. Following an assessment, our Nurse Practitioner-led team works alongside patients, families, caregivers, and healthcare providers to develop personalized Goals of Care and connect individuals with the Hospice Muskoka services and community supports that best meet their needs.
​
Through Andy’s House at Home, our team provides ongoing palliative care support through in-home visits and virtual care. This helps individuals remain in their preferred setting whenever possible, reduces avoidable hospital visits, and provides seamless, compassionate care throughout their journey. Palliative care is covered under OHIP at no cost to patients.
