HOSPICE HISTORY
The Foothills Country Hospice began with the dreams & visioning efforts of some extraordinary local citizens who saw the need for a rural hospice home in the MD of Foothills.
A great deal of work went into implementing fundraising and public education plans, and it was through these efforts that the community at large became informed, engaged, and committed to the hospice project.
Through these efforts, a “Heart for Hospice” began to beat and the Foothills Country Hospice accepted its first patient on January 28, 2008.
