This information was collected through three methods. Data was gathered from the Haliburton hospital and Access Centre databases. The third portion of the research was collected through surveying funeral directors and doctors in Haliburton County.

The findings indicated that a large portion of deaths were cancer related with the number one cause of death being lung cancer. The surveys from funeral directors and doctors revealed that there were an increasing number of residents choosing to die at home rather than in a facility.

If Haliburton were planning to position themselves as a retirement community, then a closer look into the migration habits of the region would be helpful in planning for future development. The results of this report point to a need for palliative care focused on cancer treatment and a need for increasing home services and support for residents who choose to die at home.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"cancer,palliative care,retirement,Seniors,Social and Health Studies",http://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/d5ae274b7d1c524516e76c7412ea70e0.pdf,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0
