The Ann Silverman Wellness Project
for hospice care at Shalom Village

Ann Silverman lives at Shalom Village in Hamilton, Ontario, where Dr. Alan Taniguchi directs her care. Ann has been diagnosed with a serious heart condition. She was told that she could expect to live 3–5 years with this condition. That was four years ago.

As a former nurse, Ann knows that health care professionals will do a wonderful job managing her physical symptoms, but she saw a need to address the “quality of life” issues that make each day worth living. Things like art, music, alternative therapies like reiki and massage, scrapbooking, writing – "everything that makes you really feel good," as Ann says.

Ann wanted her legacy to reflect her own values and help others get the most out of each and every day. As a result, she and her family have established the Ann Silverman Wellness Project for Hospice Care at Shalom Village.
