International Self-Care Day

Month of July

It is a lifelong habit and culture to take care of oneself. It is the practice of individuals looking after their own health based on the knowledge and information available to them. An individual's health can be managed efficiently and conveniently through this decision making process, in collaboration with health and social care professionals when necessary.

Help us celebrate International Self-Care Day and the importance of self-care to the health of Canadians and to the health care system.

National Children’s Hospice Palliative Care Day

Month of October

The annual National Children’s Hospice Palliative Care Day in Canada aims to raise awareness about the importance of pediatric hospice palliative care and improve the quality of living and dying for infants, children and youth with life-threatening conditions and their families.

Many of us associate hospice palliative care with seniors and adults, but children with life-threatening illnesses need that comfort as well.

The grief experienced throughout many BC and Yukon communities, nationally and worldwide, is significant. The National Grief and Bereavement Day serves as a reminder that you are not alone in this. Support is available at the many Hospice Societies throughout BC and the Yukon.

Grief and Bereavement Day serves as a poignant reminder of the universal journey of loss and the importance of support during these challenging times.

Children's Grief Awareness Day

Month of November 

Children’s Grief Awareness day is the third Thursday in November. A day that honors the over 203,000 of Canada's 7.5 million children that will have a family member die. It is estimated that 1 in 14 children will experience the death of a parent or sibling.

Children’s Grief Awareness Day seeks to bring attention to the fact that often support can make all the difference in the life of a grieving child. It provides an opportunity for all of us to raise awareness of the painful impact that the death of a loved one has in the life of a child, an opportunity to make sure that these children receive the support they need. This time of year is a particularly appropriate time to support grieving children because the holiday season is often an especially difficult time after a death.

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.
