To access hospice services you need to be referred by your GP or Specialist Doctor. Patients can be referred when they have reached a palliative stage in their illness – where the focus of treatment is on symptom control, comfort and quality of life rather than cure.

How does it benefit the patient?

• Your pain is managed and symptoms controlled
• You receive emotional and spiritual support
• Your quality of life in the final stages is enhanced
• You get personalised care

How does it benefit family and friends?

• You feel part of the team caring for the patient
• Your needs as a carer and individual are supported
• You have access to bereavement and counseling services

If you think you or a loved one could benefit from our service, please speak to your doctor about a referral.
