The Rural End of Life Funding Program (REOL) is a new program offered by the Department of Health and Social Services (HSS), Continuing Care (CC) Homecare branch. The REOL program will provide funding for homecare clients living in the Communities to hire additional support, beyond what is provided directly by CC Homecare. The REOL program aims to provide autonomy to clients by allowing them and/or their Substitute Decision Maker (SDM) to decide who will provide care, and when and where that care is provided. The REOL program seeks to increase the quality of care and provide options for those clients at end-of-life who wish to remain in their community, rather than travel to Whitehorse for palliative services.
