Review of Bereavement written by a patient
4th November 2016


I find the atmosphere at the day center relaxing, from the receptionists to the therapists and caring and friendly. My grief counsellor, Rim lock, could not have given me more. I do feel stronger now, having listened to her kind words of wisdom, encouragement and compassion. I am very grateful to her and the hospice.

Review of Inpatient Unit written by a patient
28th October 2016


I arrived on the 23rd October in pain somewhat overwhelmed by the whole. Situation, the help, advice, care and medication has been the very best from every aspect of the center. May I take this opportunity to thank every member of staff that I have met please keep up the outstanding work and commitment. Many thanks.

Review of Community written by a family member

I cannot fault the care that the hospice at home team gave to my husband. They were kind, caring and compassionate. He was always treated with dignity and respect. I am a senior nurse and thsi can sometimes make healthcare workers uncomfortable but I felt listened to and we worked collaboratively to give the patient excellent care that he deserved in his last days. One of the community nurses who visited troubled me with comments about the hospice staff expecting 'her' to do the care! I thought that was why we were in the healthcare profession?
