Our Care

Care and support when you need it most

At St. Michael’s Hospice, we believe every person deserves compassionate, dignified, and personalised care – wherever they call home.

Our dedicated team supports patients and those who matter most to them, helping to improve comfort, wellbeing, and quality of life at every stage.

Support for patients & families

Life-limiting illness affects more than just the individual – it touches families, friends, and communities. We offer a wide range of support services to help people navigate the emotional, practical, and social challenges they may face.

Bereavement services

The death of someone significant can be one of the most challenging and painful life experiences we face. Grief is often described as a roller coaster of emotions and it can be hard to make sense of our feelings and reactions and see a way forward after a loss.

I will never forget the amazing care we received at the hospice

Being introduced to Georgina at St. Michael’s Hospice was priceless. When we came to the Hospice we felt completely supported. Not just supported, but supported by expert, skilled and knowledgeable people.
