At Skanda Vale Hospice we strive to provide a place of excellence, offering comfort and support to patients with a life threatening illness. The Hospice carers work very closely with other healthcare professionals. Guests and patients experience the Hospice as a peaceful and welcoming oasis. The beautiful setting provides an opportunity for a very special, supportive and uplifting day out. Experienced and qualified Volunteer Carers provide personal care, assisted bathing, therapies, practical and emotional support. Lunch is provided and choices can be made from the menu to suit individual requirements.
There is often considerable pressure when a partner or member of the family has a life threatening or terminal illness. Skanda Vale Hospice helps to ease this situation by sharing some of the care time with the families. This will enable the carer at home to rest, to catch up with other necessary duties and to be ready to give quality time when a guest returns back home.
