Faced with the isolation observed among many hospitalized patients and long-term care residents, Heartful Visits was born at the University of Montreal, driven by the desire to break this isolation while offering students a concrete opportunity to engage in healthcare.
Breaking the isolation of hospitalized patients and long-term care residents by providing them with support and comfort.
Born at the University of Montreal, led by medical students passionate about community engagement.
A bridge between the hospital world and the academic environment through diverse strategic partnerships.
Innovative and humanistic, transforming the care experience while enriching the training of the next generation of healthcare professionals.
We aspire to extend this volunteer model across Canada, creating partnerships and chapters in every province, where patients are at the heart of our decisions and efforts. Our long-term ambition is to have an international impact, sharing our innovative and humanistic approach with communities around the world.
A dedicated team of students who share the same passion for community engagement and improving the patient experience.
