St Michael's Hospice

St Michael's Hospice is proud to offer choice to all our patients.  We offer palliative care in our In-Patient Service, longer term palliative, the option of Day Therapy and, of course, support within the patient's home through our Hospice at Home team.  The same medical team supports these areas of care, offering a flexible and seamless provision that meets individual needs of a patient and their family.

We aim to involve both family and friends in every aspect of patient care, and we actively encourage feedback of all sorts, whether emails, letters or even paintings:  

Last year we gave the following support: Care for 400 in-patients 2,300 Hospice at Home visits 2,200 booked day care attendances 1,000 patients seen in out-patient clinics Over 175 domiciliary visits A comfortable home for our Nursing Home residents

What it costs

To maintain our current level of services we need £5 million each year.  Nearly 75% of St Michael's funds is spent on frontline services.Only one-third of our funding comes from the PCT,so we need to raise £10,000 per day (or £7 per minute) for ongoing running costs.
