How can I access Hospice at Home support?
Self- referrals can be made via the phone line: 0300 020 0694. Your doctor, community nurses and other healthcare professionals involved in your care can also refer to our services.
Once a referral has been received, a member of our team will contact you and your family to confirm where best to meet you to complete your initial assessment.

The hospice at home team were a wonderful team of caring, thoughtful and professional nurses who helped me and my sister care for my mum in her final days. Mum always wanted to stay at home in her final days and thanks to the nurses she got that wish. Thank you all so much.
