In-Patient Facilities

We have a dedicated multi-professional team who are committed to providing a high standard of care to adults who have diseases for which curative treatment is no longer possible and the emphasis of care is to maximise the quality of life remaining.

Many patients stay with us until their symptoms are controlled and then return home. Others choose to come to the Hospice for end of life care. Patients are always encouraged to be fully involved in all decisions relating to care and we aim to provide an individualised service. We also offer support and advice for patients and their loved ones.

The unit is purpose built offering individual rooms with en suite facilities providing a comfortable, relaxed and homely environment. We have a hydromassage (jacuzzi) bath, comfortable lounges with access to tranquil and peaceful garden areas.

Visitors are always welcome including pets. Overnight facilities are also available for family and friends if required.

Admission criteria:

  • Symptom management.

  • End of life care.

  • Rehabilitation.

  • Psychological support.

Referrals are accepted from all health care professionals and these are prioritised on a daily basis. Patient/family and referring health professionals will be informed when a bed becomes available.
