About Sue Ryder South East
Hospice care is the treatment and support we offer to people with life-limiting conditions.
Our team of Sue Ryder Nurses, doctors, healthcare assistants, physiotherapists and occupational therapists combine specialist medical care for managing pain and other symptoms, with wellbeing support. Everyone works seamlessly together to support you and your family through the most difficult times.
There are a number of ways our expert teams can care for you.
If you are comfortable and supported at home and prefer to stay there, we provide a Hospice at Home service, specialist Community Nursing, day services, care coordination and a 24/7 clinical advice line.
You might stay with us to receive inpatient care at our unit in Reading, or a specialist palliative care inpatient beds at Wallingford Community Hospital.
Whether at home or as an inpatient, wherever we see you, Sue Ryder staff provide you with compassionate, expert care.
