Testimonials
"We would like to let you know of the love and care that my father received from Andy’s House. I made the decision to send my father Jim to Andy’s House … I could then go from being his caregiver, well all of us were his caregivers, back to being his family and most importantly his daughter. I spent his last 4 days here with him. We’d also like to mention what a beautiful place it is and how thankful we are to have Andy’s House here in Muskoka."

“I will be forever grateful to Andy’s House for the great care and support my mother and I received. Andy’s House made my mother's final journey very peaceful and spiritual. Thank you.”

“Her sweet fluffy companions Molly and Logan were never far from her side and provided comfort to Nancy and the other residents and staff at the hospice throughout her stay. We would like to honour her last wishes by encouraging her loved ones to read about Andy’s House. We were all touched by the kindness and superior care she received there and hope others can experience this as well.”

Hospice Muskoka is located on the shores of the Indian River, a waterway joining Lake Rosseau and Lake Muskoka. The Indian River was used for decades as a migration and trading route by Indigenous peoples of the of the Anishnaabeg, which includes the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi Nations, collectively known as the Three Fires Confederacy. The Huron-Wendat and the Haudenosaunee Nations have also walked on this territory over time.
Today Muskoka is home to three sovereign nations: Wahta Mohawks First Nations, Moose Deer Point First Nation and the Moon River Métis.
​
This land acknowledgement is an expression of gratitude and appreciation to those on whose territory we gather, and as a way of honouring the Indigenous Peoples who have been living and working on this land for centuries and who continue to be stewards of the land, protectors of the water, and sustainers of life.
Hospice Muskoka is committed to abiding by the Anishnaabeg teaching that honours the Creator for giving humans seven sacred gifts: love, truth, respect, wisdom, humility, honesty and bravery. We, at Hospice Muskoka, are dedicated to respecting and honouring the past, present and future of all people and hope to inspire others to take action toward real truth and reconciliation.
