Care services
Introduction
St Michael’s Hospice aims to promote flexibility and choice for individuals with life-limiting illness and their families. Our range of services means we can offer a package of support that can vary according to changing needs.
This could be, for example, the offer of an in-patient stay on a short-term basis for symptom control or respite care, longer term care and/or support to enable an individual to stay at home through day therapy support or care from our Hospice at Home team.
Our key services
- In-Patient Service – short term & longer term specialist palliative care
- Hospice at Home – 24 hour community outreach support
- Education and training – for Hospice and NHS professionals
Additional services
We seek not only to offer high quality medical and nursing support, but also to make sure that individuals can access other services such as:
- Complementary therapies and counselling from the Sara Lee Trust (an independent charity based within St Michael’s Hospice)
- Physiotherapy
- Lymphoedema services provided by a PCT funded nurse
