About us

Who we are

Willow Wood Hospice is an adult Hospice providing specialist palliative care for patients with life limiting illnesses, both cancer and non-cancer diagnosis. We provide care, free of charge, and patients, families and their carers are at the centre of everything we do.

Specialist Palliative Care

We provide specialist palliative care to those people in our care who have complex symptoms, or are at the end of life. We holistically assess the people in our care, including medically, psychologically and socially. We also care for the needs of the families.

Patients are assessed individually and a plan of care tailored accordingly. Planned care includes:

  • Nurse and Doctor assessments
  • Emotional and psychological support
  • Physiotherapy support as required
  • Complementary therapy
  • Referral to social services as required

Patients who have had complex symptom control problems, once stabilised will then go back home or to another care setting to continue to enjoy and get the most out of life.

End of life Care

We also provide end of life support and care for patients and their families during this time. We would try to support their choices, for example, if they wished to be cared for at home we would do our upmost to meet these needs.
