We appreciate that a referral to our charity can seem daunting and leave you and your loved ones feeling anxious and with many questions. Rest assured our team of nurses, doctors, healthcare professionals, colleagues and volunteers are here to help you maintain your health and wellbeing to live as comfortably and independently as possible, for as long as you are able.

Every one of our patients is different and their needs and concerns are individual to them. This is why we tailor our Hospice care and support to your specific circumstances and take a holistic assessment of your needs, whether they are physical, emotional, spiritual or social. 

So in addition to your medical needs, our team of counsellors, welfare advisers, social workers, chaplains and volunteers are here to help in a variety of ways, offering financial and welfare advice and psychological and spiritual support to you or your family and carers.

Which members of our team look after you very much depends on what care and support you need at any given time and this will be regularly reviewed in partnership with you to ensure you’ll always feel fully supported.

We have set up a peer to peer support group on Facebook which is open to all our patients and their carers.  This closed group will enable you to connect and support each other.  You can ask our Family Support Team for the details (01622 792200 ext 260 or email fst@hokh.co.uk) or request to join the group on Facebook using this link.
