We invite you to get comfortable in a relaxing space wherever you may be and join us for our virtual Mindfulness Meditation. Never tried it before or not sure if meditations for you? This is a great opportunity to try. Open to our community for all levels. We are currently living in a “new normal” and this meditation is a chance to focus on you and what you need right now. Email [email protected] for the zoom link. See you tonight at 7PM 🙏🏼💜

Have you heard this important message on @931freshradio + @1011bigfm ? Who would make your health care decisions for you if you were no longer able? With the COVID-19 pandemic, now more than ever, it is important to have these conversations. We are in a time where no one knows what will happen and are constantly reminded of how fragile life really is. Hospice Simcoe staff is available to provide support with the Advance Care Planning process. Please feel free to reach us at (705)725-1140. Let's make these conversations happen, take care ourselves and take care of each other. Click the link in our bio for more resources. *tap to hear this message*

A Message from Us to You
From Cathy, Colleen & Tonya, Our Volunteers are a special part of our Hospice Simcoe Family - we can't wait to see you! #CHEERSTOVOLUNTEERS #NationalVolunteerWeek

Some music to brighten your day, courtesy of two talented members of our Clinical Team, Kevin + Garrett accompanied by a family member on piano 💜 Our residence is quieter than usual as we continue to take precautionary measures to keep everyone safe. Our team is practicing physical-distancing while we care for and support our residents and families. With that in mind, music is a big part of our day-to-day at Hospice Simcoe and these talented musicians filled our house with some great songs, happiness + love. 💜

We’re feeling the holiday spirit at our residence this afternoon thanks to these wonderful carollers!

Hike for Hospice 2018 - Thank you!
We are very happy to share with all of you that our 2018 Hike for Hospice raised over $96,000 - WOW! Thank you to over 600 of you who came out on Sunday to hike with us and collected pledges in support of Hospice Simcoe. We are so grateful for all of you and the amazing impact you have made. Thank you to the incredible sponsors and supporters who covered all costs of this event so 100% of the money raised by each and every hiker can go directly to Hospice Simcoe's programs and services. A big thanks goes out to Parker Coulter Barrie Realtor for putting together this video for us. Look at all those hikers!

Our Tuesday Singers are filling the house with Holiday Cheer! It’s our annual Volunteer Christmas Party here at Hospice Simcoe and the house is full of fun and laughter.
