This means that we enrich the quality of life of those living with, or affected by, a serious illness through the highly specialised skills of an experienced and caring team.
We have 15 single rooms, five of which have en-suite facilities and a 3-bed room, relative facilities, a quiet room/chapel and grounds for you to use.
The team consists of Community Clinical Nurse Specialists (CNS) and a consultant in palliative medicine. The CNSs are nurses who have additional training, experience, skills and knowledge to help people with specialist palliative care needs. We aim to ease or prevent symptoms and offer psychological and spiritual support to you, your family and friends. And we hope to enhance your quality of life.
We’re part of the wider hospice team, which includes a family support team, a physiotherapist, occupational therapist, lymphoedema specialist, chaplaincy team, Day Therapy Unit and complementary therapists, who can be involved in your care as required. We also work in partnership with GPs, district nurses, community matrons and hospital teams.
