Bereavement counselling with Lorraine. A series of thoughtful thought provoking sessions which helped me to identify problems and see ways to climb out of the depression I had got myself into. I am now much more optimistic about my future life. Lorraine facilitated the decisions I can now make about myself.
The staff are so pleasant. I was left feeling physically and mentally relaxed.
-Meet other people to chat etc.
-Varied activities.
-Refreshment/meals.
Lovely therapist- Jenny.
Amazing therapeutic treatment (reflexology) with good 'feel good' factor and positive effects.
Would really welcome a course of 6 - only if availability as I understand how important these therapies are for others too! (Had 2 treatments already.)
Constant care which was gentle sympathetic, unintrusive, all the nurses were wonderful, they were all happy and smiling patient were concerned about the patient but the whole family unit. I could not praise them enough. Thank you all. Day staff night staff and kitchen.
Initial assessment visit- very useful and good information.
The care I received with Valerie Lockert could not be improved.
The empathy kindness and help she gave me, to come out of a big black hole helped me with a new meaning to life. Without my darling son. So thank you for all your help and understanding.
All the things I have been through I didn't feel judged, even though so far fetched. I felt listened to and heard. I was given work to do at home and general advice, this was key to me getting through this time.
I have been going to see Wendy at the clacton-on-sea hospice for bereavement. She was absolutely wonderful. She listened to all I wanted to talk about even though it was about other personal things as well as losing my husband. She is such a lovely person, caring. I told her about times on my life that I want. Tell anybody else.
We are keeping the door open to see how I get on by myself but I have peace of mind knowing Wendy is there if and when I need her.
St Helena Hospice was awarded the iWantGreatCare certificate of excellence in 2024 for delivering outstanding care.
