Sloane’s House is where families of children, aged up to twenty one (21) years, with complex 
health needs will come to join our family of caring professionals; a supportive community of 
parents and caregivers. Located in Whitby, it will be available for those living across Durham 
Region and in the surrounding underserved communities. A rejuvenating place for respite stays 
offering engaging programing for the child or young person, while parents and other caregivers 
take a much-needed break. And for those children and youth who are on their end-of-life 
journey, a place where specialized care will be provided in an environment where quality of life 
will be the focus for however many days remain. 
 
With an estimated 1,900 children with medically complex needs in Durham Region and 
surrounding communities, 800 in Durham alone, requiring paediatric medical respite and 
hospice care, the need for this Children's Hospice Is clear.
