Palliative Care Home

Headed by the Sercan Sercan Foundation, the Sercan Palliative Care Home welcomes people nearing the end of their life for free.

Located in Saint-Eustache, Maison Sercan has been offering personalized end-of-live care to patients since 2005. Seven private rooms, soon to be 12, are available to patients to live in a calm and caring environment. Our qualified staff is on duty 24 hours a day to relieve residents’ symptoms and discomfort and allow them to live out their last moments with dignity.

Praise for the Sercan Palliative Care Home

“Maison Sercan fills a need in the community! Dying with dignity is not a privilege. It’s a right. Thank you Sercan!” – A. Leclair

“We immediately felt supported in the process. Seeing names at the room doors is a very good idea. Your personnel was empathetic and attentive to our mother. Our family greatly appreciates the services we received. We strongly recommend it.” –

“Throughout my mother’s stay, we were always kept informed of the care she received and the changes in her health. The atmosphere my mother experienced and the care she received far surpassed our expectations. I am happy that Sercan watched over her in her last days. Everything was perfect. Thank you to the entire team.” – S. Doucet

“Our mother’s short stay in the Sercan Palliative Care Home introduced us to dedicated professionals who truly love what they do. Our mother received the best care for her condition.

“These people are angels. They lifted so much stress from my shoulders. I was at my wits’ end. Thank you so much.” – S. Leblanc

“Thanks to Maison Sercan, I was able to accompany my husband until his last breath. The nursing team provided all the necessary care, so I was able to be his wife again and be there for him and my family. I could focus on the essentials and make him feel that I was always at his side.” – Ms. Brunet

“Despite our sadness when our mother passed away, we were privileged, because you provided exceptional care. It should be noted that the entire staff showed gentleness, understanding, and respect. We felt reassured knowing she was at the Sercan home.” – Ms. Poirier

“Maison Sercan gave him the serenity and rest he needed at the end of his life. I want to thank you wholeheartedly for accompanying him so lovingly.” – Ms. Renée

“We were very lucky to have your support and presence during our mother’s stay and passing, six years ago. You are angels. xx” – S. Dumas

Community involvement is vital to continue to provide end-of-life care and services to those who are bereaved.

We now have 12 rooms to accommodate people requiring personalized and appropriate palliative care.

Quelques moments marquants de notre histoire

Une étudiante en travail social et quelques bénévoles mettent sur pied Sercan. L’organisme offre des services d’échange et d’entraide dédiés aux personnes atteintes de cancer ainsi que leur entourage.

La structure s’adapte, car la mort fait également partie de la maladie. Ainsi, la Maison de soins palliatifs à Saint-Eustache est créée.

Une campagne de financement d’envergure, présidée par M. Fernand Biard, finance la construction de la Maison Sercan. Ainsi, c’est en automne 2005 que la Maison de soins palliatifs reçoit son premier patient.

Un beau projet d’agrandissement voit le jour. Le nombre de lits disponibles passent de 4 à 7 grâce au Défi Kilimandjaro de janvier 2012. De cette manière, la Maison Sercan constitue, depuis, un service inestimable pour les gens de notre communauté en accompagnement de fin de vie.
