Vancouver Coastal Health Hospice start up guidelines
There are a number of standards, guidelines, regulations and requirements that relate to the development and operations of hospices. We created hospice start up guidelines to help our hospice service providers navigate through the wealth of information available and provide a framework that will assist them in the planning, development and operations of their hospice. The guidelines are most relevant for hospices within the VCH geographic region.
