Palliative care home
For an end-of-life surrounded by loved ones
The Gisèle Faubert Foundation’s mission is to build and operate a palliative care home to serve the residents of 65 municipalities in the Montérégie-Ouest region. The home will have the capacity to accommodate eight (8) patients, including a pediatric clientele.
The goal: to open the doors of the palliative care home by the end of 2025.
The benefits of such a home for the region are incalculable, both in medical and human terms. The added value of such a home is the proximity of services, making it easier for loved ones to accompany them, a peaceful and comforting environment in which to live out one’s last moments with serenity and dignity, free services (accommodation, care, parking, etc.) and quality care, both for beneficiaries and their loved ones (with a caregiver-to-patient ratio of 1/4).

Spokesperson for the palliative care home
A native of Beauharnois and an actress for many years, I began my acting career at the Polyvalente de Beauharnois, continued my studies at the Cégep de Valleyfield and worked for a few years in Saint-Timothée.
I’ve always been very attached to my region, and I’m very happy to be a spokesperson for the Gisèle Faubert Foundation and to be able to be associated with this important mission we have to achieve together: building the Gisèle-Faubert Palliative Care Home. I invite you to watch my video to understand the importance of your support and involvement in this project.
