Looking death in the face can be a harrowing experience. Patients can try complementary and diversional therapies such as reflexology, aromatherapy, hydrotherapy, or participate in arts and crafts. They can also read books and magazines from our extensive library, listen to music and enjoy the excellent cuisine prepared by our resident chef -all free of charge. For families, we also provide bereavement counseling and support. Our Lymphoedema Clinic is unique.
Patients get fast, expert, effective, modern care in line with their needs.
Our clinic on Wednesdays and Fridays is reserved mainly for younger patients and those with breast cancer to obtain professional advice and information. They may need time to consider the implications of their illness while receiving complementary therapies. The relaxed, friendly atmosphere adds to the well being of the patients. We also provide transport for the patients from their homes to the hospice and sometimes to hospital for their appointments. We operate an open referral system which means patients can be referred by families, friends, carers or doctors.
