Aboriginal Patients’ Lodge
We are officially Open with beautiful new Suites to serve families from across BC!
Aboriginal Patients’ Lodge provides culturally safe accommodations for Indigenous families who must travel to Vancouver to access medical services for cancer, transplants, surgery, complex pregnancies and other medical procedures. Guests are welcome to stay for prolonged periods of time. The Lodge is a healing place for all of our guests and their families.
Lu’ma’s Patients’ Lodge has provided a healing place for over 8,000 medical and family guests, since we opened in 2004.
In order to serve the Indigenous community across BC for another 21 years, we needed a renovation.
Our Indigenous design team created a completely fresh new look with upscale quality finishings, fixtures, appliances, safety features, colour pallet, and fine furnishings. All of our Suites are completely renovated now and ready to offer families a great accommodation experience during their medical healing journey.
In order to stay at the Lodge, Guests must be travelling to Vancouver for Medical appointments/ procedures and must have Indigenous ancestry.
