Advocating for Hospice & Palliative Care in the Upcoming Election

Help us spread the word!

As the 2024 BC Election approaches, the British Columbia Hospice Palliative Care Association (BCHPCA) and our members are committed to ensuring that hospice and palliative care receive the attention they deserve on government platforms.

To aid in this endeavour, we have prepared a document with key messages designed to raise awareness and educate government officials about the significance of hospice palliative care. These resources highlight the vital impact of our services on the over 120,000 British Columbians who benefit from them each year.

We encourage you to share this information with family, friends, healthcare professionals, and government partners. By working together, we can ensure equitable access to hospice palliative care for all who need it, when and where they choose.


Election day is:
Saturday, October 19th

Please remember to get out and vote!

As we approach the upcoming provincial election, it’s crucial to stay informed about the key issues affecting our healthcare and palliative care systems.

This comprehensive guide highlights the urgent need for policy changes to better serve our aging population and those in need of end-of-life care. We encourage you to download and review this important document to understand the key messaging and advocate for necessary reforms.

The BC Hospice Palliative Care Association (BCHPCA) recognizes the traditional land of the First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples who have walked before us and minded the lands we now call home for time immemorial. Hospice Societies have been able to support, aid and care for many people on these same lands.

The BCHPCA Offices are located on the ancestral, traditional, and unceded lands of the Coast Salish Peoples, including the territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and TsleilWaututh Nations.
