Greg has been a Registered Nurse providing palliative care for over 25 years. He previously worked as a Visiting Nurse with VON Hamilton, and then as a Clinical Nurse Specialist at St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton. He began working at Lisaard & Innisfree Hospice when he moved to Waterloo in 2015. Soon after he started, the hospice sought to expand its support for grief and bereavement care; since then, Greg has been pleased to serve as Bereavement Coordinator.
