CATHARINES — Jerry Bhoolai was like many when he first came to stay at Hospice Niagara last April. Not wanting to stay any longer in the hospital, Bhoolai asked his wife Edie to get him out, find somewhere else for what he and his oncologist figured might very well be his last days. “She said ‘you’re going to love this place’. On April 13 at around 7 a. m. , Bhoolai was picked up by a patient transfer system and was immediately put at ease when one of them let him know how familiar he was with Hospice Niagara. “He told me ‘you’re going to the best place in Niagara’,” Bhoolai said. Bhoolai said arriving at the residential hospice, he saw right away it was an “amazing place. One by one, the staff came into his room to introduce themselves. “They all said ‘we’re here for you’,” he recalled. Bhoolai said the staff provided for his every need unconditionally. “There was nothing I needed they wouldn’t provide,” he said, “nothing at all. Bhoolai said days would start, not with him being served a tray for breakfast but by him being asked what he would like for the first meal of the day. Source: www.niagarathisweek.com
