About Jocelyn House Inc.

Overview

Jocelyn House Inc. operates a palliative care hospice in Winnipeg, providing compassionate end-of-life care to individuals facing terminal illnesses. The organization offers a supportive and comforting environment for patients and their families, ensuring that they receive the physical, emotional, and spiritual care they need during this difficult time. Jocelyn House Inc. is committed to enhancing the quality of life for those in their care, promoting dignity, respect, and peace throughout the end-of-life journey.

Mission

Jocelyn House Hospice exists to carry on the dream of Jocelyn Hutton by adding life to final days for the terminally ill and their loved ones, providing care and comfort in a home-like setting. The organization also serves as a community leader and advocate, working to ensure that compassionate, community-based palliative care remains accessible and affordable for those living with terminal illness and for the families who support them.

Vision

Jocelyn House Hospice envisions enhancing and expanding its services to meet the growing need for end-of-life care in Manitoba, while preserving the mission and values on which the organization was founded. It holds that quality care at the end of life is not a luxury but a necessary community responsibility, and works toward a future in which every person facing a terminal illness has access to compassionate, dignified care within a supportive community. The hospice is committed to ensuring that its unique model of community-based palliative care remains a viable and affordable option for individuals and families across the region.

Unique value proposition

Jocelyn House Hospice distinguishes itself as a genuine home rather than a clinical institution — a converted family residence nestled among trees along a riverbank, where residents are welcomed by familiar comforts and the warmth of a close-knit community. As one of only 16 hospice beds in all of Manitoba, it fills a critical gap in end-of-life care, offering an intimate, four-bed setting that prioritizes dignity, acceptance, and family involvement. Its founding story, rooted in the life and spirit of Jocelyn Hutton, gives the organization a deeply personal identity and a philosophy captured in its own words: not because people die here, because they live here.
