Healing Gardens


Gardens and outdoor areas are a practical response to Hospice & Community Care's desire to maintain natural spaces as well as offer therapeutic spaces on the Hospice campus. The campus has several gardens - sanctuary, terrace, children's and arbor- which offer patients and family members, as well as the community, space to worship, contemplate, reminisce or refresh themselves.

Marie's Sanctuary provides a space for patients, families, staff and the community to reflect and meditate. It is available for special events and services. The garden surrounding Marie's Sanctuary allows for an intimate setting and serves as the focal point upon entering the campus.
