Who We Are
Since 1991, Hospis Malaysia has been driven by a single, transparent purpose: to ensure that no one facing a serious illness has to walk their journey alone.
We operate as an independent charity with no political, religious, or government ties influencing our work. Our clinical team provides care to families across the Klang Valley, entirely free of charge. We believe that alleviation of suffering is a fundamental right, which is why our team strives to offer clinical excellence and compassionate support to ensure this, in the comfort of our patients’ homes. We stay focused solely on our mission, honouring the dignity of every patient we serve through care, education, and advocacy.
We aim to provide access to the highest possible quality of evidence-based palliative care to everyone in need so as to provide relief from, and prevent pain and suffering associated with progressive and life-threatening illness.
Our mission is to:
We strongly believe in respect, compassion, and knowledge as our guiding principles in everything that we do. It is with these standards that each of us conduct our day-to-day behaviour and decision-making.
Our values can be summarised with the acronym I CARE:
I will work openly, honestly, and treat everyone fairly.
I will be kind, thoughtful, and show genuine interest in everyone I am in contact with including my colleagues, my patients and their families, and my supporters.
I will take responsibility for all my decisions and actions, and I will not blame anyone else for my mistakes.
I will value others and recognise that the quality of my work is dependent on the entire team. I also need to recognise the diversity of others’ opinions and culture and learn from this diversity.
I will strive to learn, improve, and give my best.
After more than 30 years of caring for patients and families, Hospis Malaysia is entering a new chapter of growth and impact.
