Providing Comfort and Care: Polysleep Donates Mattresses to the Pavillon Kat Demes, which provides Families from out-of-town with a home away from home while their child is admitted to The Montreal Children's Hospital
MONTREAL, Jan. 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Polysleep, a leader in sleep and comfort, proudly announces its collaboration with the Pavillon Kat Demes, a remarkable initiative that offers temporary accommodation to families from out of town whose sick child is receiving inpatient care at The Montreal Children's Hospital.
The Pavillon Kat Demes situated a mere five-minute walk from the hospital at 5004 de Maisonneuve Boulevard will open its doors in early spring, providing a temporary lodging to families from outside of Montreal facing the financial, physical, and psychological challenges of supporting their sick children.
Generously spearheaded by donors, the pavilion stands as a beacon of support, being the sole facility in Quebec to offer free, temporary housing. With a focus on fostering a nurturing environment, the Pavillon Kat Demes will feature six private bedrooms, each equipped with a queen-sized bed and workspace, along with private washrooms. The facility will also include a communal living room, laundry facilities, and an outdoor terrace. Complimentary breakfasts will further alleviate some of the daily stress for resident families.
