Hospice Care

Hospices provide care specifically for terminally ill people and give support to their carers both in the hospice and at home.

Admission is arranged through your doctor or hospital consultant. Some private nursing and rest homes also specialise in the care of the terminally ill. Your doctor or hospital consultant should know of such homes in your area.
