Hospice SENB is a registered charity established in 2004 to promote awareness about life-limiting illnesses and end-of-life issues, and to provide grief and bereavement services and support for clients and families.

​

Governed by a volunteer Board of Directors, the Executive Director implements the organization's policies and goals within a business model of operations.

​

There are various committees that work in collaboration with staff and volunteers, including a building committee, Shoppe building committee, marketing, fundraising, and nominating committees, among others.

​

Hospice SENB's comprehensive approach to palliative care offers programs in two main areas, addressing the needs of patients and families alike:

​

• Community Palliative Care: In-home support for clients and caregivers; and

• Bereavement Care: Grief support group provides support and comfort to those grieving the loss of a loved one.

The Board of Directors is the legal governing authority and oversees the affairs of the organization.

 

The role of the Board is to provide governance and overall policy direction for the Company and ensure its financial integrity, the fulfillment of its legal responsibilities, the pursuit of its objectives and the quality of its programs on behalf of the community.  Operations are implemented by the Executive Director.

​

As a member of the Board, a Director acts in a position of trust for the community and is responsible for effective governance, stewardship, leadership and support of the organization.

 

The Board of Directors is ultimately responsible to the community and regulatory and funding bodies, as appropriate, for the effective operation and management of Hospice Southeast New Brunswick.

​

The 2020-2021 Board of Directors is listed below, including executive appointments.

 

Honororary members of the Board are Jack Cameron and Rev. Doug MacEachern.
