The province is investing over $1,400,000 in McNally House Hospice

A local hospice is getting some help from the province. 

McNally House Hospice is getting over $1,400,000 from the Hospice Capital Program. 

The money will be used to increase the number of residential hospice beds from six to ten, supporting nursing care, and increasing access to palliative care. 

"The capital expansion of care from six to ten beds at McNally House Hospice, as well as the additional operational funding, reaffirms our government's commitment to high-quality palliative care in our region and the extraordinary work of the leadership and frontline team at McNally House," says Niagara West MPP Sam Oosterhoff. " Ontario's $147.4 million investment over three years in operational funding for hospice care is a significant increase that will benefit every community across the province."

McNally House has also received assistance from the Township of West Lincoln and the Town of Lincoln.
