Launching CompassionateAlberta.ca

With the support of the Government of Alberta, Covenant Health’s Palliative Institute is launching a website dedicated to raising awareness of advance care planning and palliative care.

Launched on the International Day of Older Persons, CompassionateAlberta.ca offers tool kits and resources to assist individuals with their life planning. It aims to improve understanding of personal, financial and estate planning for individuals and their families.

This initiative builds on Compassionate Communities, an innovative public health approach that regards the community as an equal partner in caring for those who are seriously ill, dying, caregiving and grieving. Compassionate Alberta recognizes the need for early awareness by community organizations and the public as a necessary foundation for building compassionate communities.
