Bassetlaw Hospice prides itself on giving the best possible care and support for you and your carers. Specifically we focus on effective management of troublesome symptoms, which may be affecting your quality of life and ability to enjoy day-to-day activities. Other referrals to the Hospice may be for emotional support, respite care, convalescence following cancer treatments and care towards the end of life.
For your comfort each of our bedrooms is equipped with an electrically operated positional bed, air conditioning and en-suite facilities. Every room has a flat screen television with a dvd player and telephone. A selection of books, newspapers, magazines, videos and music are always available. All bedrooms have patio doors that open onto our gardens.
In accordance with hospice care across the UK, the Hospice aims to provide specialised medical and nursing care to enable individuals to remain at home whenever possible. This means that long stays in the Hospice can be avoided. The average Hospice length of stay is usually less than two weeks but you may have a longer or shorter stay depending on your individual needs.
