About Us

We honour the human spirit, with a foundation of quality care, fiscal sustainability, leadership, and accountability.

In late 1974, the Anglican, United, and Roman Catholic Churches decided to create a warm and welcoming care centre in Burnaby open to persons of all backgrounds and faith traditions. St. Michael is recorded in the Jewish, Christian, and Islamic faiths as a protector and healing angel.

We support person-centred care by engaging our residents in daily living with meaningful activities and strong interpersonal connections.

At St. Michael’s Centre Hospice, our sensitive and specialized care to persons transitioning from life is arguably what we are best known for in the community.

Testimonials

Simply the most compassionate extended care centre I have ever witnessed

If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. The dedication, support, service, and around the clock care is astonishing. The attention to detail provided is exemplary and my grandmother seems to be in such happier spirits being around new friends and a great group of nurses. I cannot stress this enough, this place should only be getting 5/5 star ratings.

Staff were fantastic and provided exceptional care to my Aunt!

Staff continued to provide incredible care and went above and beyond when COVID started. My Aunt was well taken care of and I as her support person was supported and kept up to date on any issues that came up. I can’t thank St. Michael’s enough for all the did for my Aunt and myself.

There aren’t enough words to convey how great the hospice staff are at St. Michael’s!

My father was only there for 9 days but he was so happy and comfortable in the last days of his life. The nurses treated him like gold and my brother and I also. He had his own lovely room with everything he needed and they even accommodated us overnight with everything we needed. Thank you SO much! All our love to you guys ❤
