Patients & Families

St Nicholas Hospice Care is here to help people live their lives to the full and improve the quality of life for all who are affected by their illness.

People are admitted to Sylvan Ward, our specialist unit, for a variety of reasons.

Orchard Day Therapy offers a friendly and relaxed atmosphere for patients to access practical help and advice in relation to managing their symptoms and the challenges caused by their illness.

Care delivered by the Hospice to patients in their own homes, wherever that may be.

Emotional and spiritual support during illness and into bereavement

This service is for relatives and close friends of people who have been patients of any of the St Nicholas Hospice Care services. We can also help relatives of people who have died in other hospices.

A support programme for bereaved children and young people

Educational and support groups for patients and family members

St Nicholas Hospice Care extends to families, carers and friends and does not end with bereavement. There are different ways in which we can help commemorate the lives of former patients.
