Salisbury Hospice Reception - 01722 425113
Initially set up in 1981 to provide palliative care and support for terminally ill patients within the Salisbury area, the hospice has grown over the years and is now able to accommodate up to ten patients in its purpose-built facility.
The hospice provides nursing and medical care, emotional and practical support, welfare advice, occupational and physiotherapy, complementary therapies, spiritual care and creative activities. Care is provided for people in their own homes and through non-residential and inpatient services at Salisbury Hospice.
To ensure that more people in the local community have a better end of life experience, the hospice also shares specialist skills through education and support for other care providers, such as GPs, district nurses, hospitals and care homes.
Our specialist multi-disciplinary team provides care and support for patients with complex needs arising from advanced, progressive, life-limiting illnesses, and also for their families and carers.
A space where patients, their families and carers can relax and spend time together, the day centre provides a peaceful, nurturing environment.
Our dedicated team of social workers supports not only the hospice patients, but also their carers and families.
There are many ways our volunteers make a difference to the lives of the people we support both in the hospice and the wider community.
Hospice at Home is provided in the latter stages of a life limiting illness. Having a Hospice at Home carer allows family members to get a good night's sleep or to take a break during the day, knowing that their loved one is being safely and professionally cared for.
