End-of-life accompaniment<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our volunteers are present in the palliative care unit to respond to patients\u2019 needs. Trained in active listening, they receive memories, pain and joy with complete confidentiality and accompany patients through this final stage of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compassionate writing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We all need to leave a trace, express our feelings and deepest thoughts to our loved ones, and find comfort in sharing our final words before we leave. This service gives patients the opportunity to send messages, share memories, or express their thoughts to loved ones, even as their strength declines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Support for bereaved people<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The PalliAmi Foundation offers grief support services to better meet the needs of bereaved people across Qu\u00e9bec. This free and confidential service takes the form of individual or group accompaniment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Individual meetings<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Whether held in person or by phone, this service is designed to allow grieving people to open up, share memories, and express the emotions they are carrying, while receiving empathetic, non-judgmental listening to help them cope better with their grief.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Group meetings<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Facing the death of a loved one is often a painful and difficult life experience to go through. Depending on demand, the PalliAmi Foundation offers in-person or virtual support workshops for grieving people. These meetings, which run over ten weeks, address various grief-related themes. They allow participants to connect with others who are going through a similar experience and help them get through the ordeal as best they can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
