I found it extremely helpful to have time to talk with two wonderful nurses, who were able to understand what I needed from them and to provide unhurried support and advice. Nothing was too much trouble, and their time and expertise was given freely and without pressure.
The care provided was beyond excellent, and certainly beyond my expectations.My wife died quite quickly after her condition suddenly deteriorated, so each nurse only had the opportunity to make me visit, I was sorry not to have seen more of them.
The only way in which I could imagine the support being improved would have been to have it available earlier - but I can't really see how that would be possible. My thanks to all concerned.

Response from Cynthia Spencer Hospice
Thank you for your feedback. The Hospice at Home service is commissioned to support patients and their carers or relatives considered to be within the last four weeks of life. We continue to work with other services in exploring when it is appropriate for Hospice at Home to be involved.
