Inpatient Care

 
 

"St Ann’s Hospice helped Violet to lead as full a life as possible for as long as possible. She was able to carry on being herself, which was very important to her." Alana Brayshaw, Violet’s sister

(Violet Turner and Sister Sian Burgess pictured above)

St Ann's Hospice has 60 Inpatient beds,
36 at Heald Green and 24 at Little Hulton, making it one of the largest adult hospices in the UK.

People admitted as inpatients are looked after by Palliative Care Consultants, who are supported by a multi-professional team of health professionals and volunteers.

Inpatient care means being admitted to one of our Hospices for a short period of time to have pain managed and symptoms controlled, or being admitted for a longer period of time for terminal care.

All inpatients are able to access other
St Ann's services including Supportive Outpatients (a range of clinics to support specific needs of the patient and family/ carer, both physically and psychologically) and also Day Care.

Patients are referred to St Ann's Hospice as an Inpatient by their GP, Macmillan Nurse, Specialist Nurse or Consultant.

Referrals are accepted for pain and symptom control, rehabilitation following radiotherapy, chemotherapy, surgery and other palliative interventions, terminal care and specialist Respite care.
