Last updated on November 2022
To meet the growing needs of the community we serve, Kensington Health is expanding our hospice and making more room for moments that matter. The expansion will add nine beds making Kensington Hospice the most comprehensive single-site hospice in downtown Toronto and one of the largest in Canada.
Construction on the project began in February 2020 with the relocation and enhancement of underutilized space previously occupying the west wing of the ground floor at 45 Brunswick Ave. We are happy to announce that we are in the final phase of the expansion project and will be able to see our first residents in the new space in the coming months. Following the completion of the expansion space, a renovation of the existing hospice at 38 Major Street will begin.
When all phases of the project are fully complete in early 2023, the 19-bed Kensington Hospice will have nearly doubled our capacity to provide compassionate end-of-life care. We believe in quality of life at the end-of-life. And we think that everyone deserves the opportunity to have a good ending.
.
To expand the new facility and extend our Hospice programming, we need your help.
Be part of a proven, bold health care solution that embodies the true power of community case when it’s needed most.

What is Kensington Hospice?
A warm and inviting home on a beautiful, tree-lined street in Harbord Village, Kensington Hospice offers 10 palliative and end-of-life care beds to residents who call us their final home. Our team of professionals and volunteers offers pain control, symptom relief, nursing care, social work, therapies, spiritual support and nutritious meals.
What is the Hospice Expansion Project?
To meet the growing needs of the community, Kensington Hospice is expanding to create nine additional beds and a new space for our community day hospice program. Construction began in February 2020. When completed in 2022, the 19-bed Kensington Hospice will have nearly doubled our capacity to provide quality and compassionate end-of-life care to the community we serve. We are also taking this opportunity to upgrade and enhance common areas within The Gardens long-term care building.
Why is the Kensington Hospice being expanded?
We built Kensington Hospice in 2011 to give those with terminal illness and their loved ones a better choice for end-of-life care. Kensington’s unique palliative model brings together the comfort of home with specialized symptom management, holistic care and local bereavement supports.
Despite the growing number of people with terminal illness in Ontario and severe restrictions to accessing hospitals, Kensington Hospice only has 10 beds and the number of people for whom we can provide care is far too limited. The Kensington Hospice Expansion frees up hospital beds for urgent care and eases the burden on the healthcare system. It offers more holistic care at a lower cost to taxpayers and creates greater access to services for the community.
When did construction begin?
Construction began in February 2020, with internal renovations on the main floor of Kensington Gardens.
How long will construction last?
The Hospice Expansion project is scheduled to be completed in 2022.
What are the construction hours?
Construction is limited to Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. On occasion, work will be required between 7 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. and on weekends.
How big is the expansion project?
When complete, the Hospice will include:
You have likely noticed construction hoarding and disruption in the lobby of 45 Brunswick Ave. over the last few months. We want to thank you for your patience and understanding while we undertake this important work.

If you have a question or concerns please do not hesitate to contact Edward Aust, Corporate Planning Specialist, at eaust@kensingtonhealth.org.
Please read the frequently asked questions below for more information.
How will you ensure the safety of the residents throughout this project?
Resident safety is a priority throughout this project. We will conduct weekly construction meetings with our contactors and regular compliance checks with our architects, IBI Group. The Ministry of Health and City of Toronto reviewed and approved all elements of the project. All contractors on site must sign in when they arrive to their shift and wear an identifying badge.

No Kensington Gardens resident will be relocated throughout this project.

Outdoor construction on Brunswick Ave.
Part of the hospice expansion project requires temporary outdoor work on Brunswick Ave.
Though the start date is pending City of Toronto approval, once the work on Brunswick Ave. begins it will last for approximately four months. There will be many precautions taken to minimize the disruption to the community, including a designated accessibility route. We will be updating this page frequently with more information.
Rest assured that we have taken many precautions to keep our residents and staff safe during this project:
