Welcome

The purpose of Rotherham Hospice is to enhance the quality of life of patients and those important to them through specialist palliative care services and education. The Hospice is committed to achieving this by providing services for patients during the changing phases of their illness.

We will offer a well-coordinated, multi-professional, and ‘seamless’ service, which integrates the Hospice specialist palliative care services with primary, secondary, and tertiary health care services, other voluntary and independent agencies, social services, and, in the case of children and young people, education services.

Our approach will be non-judgemental and non-discriminatory. We consider it equally important to give support to those who care for our patients, whether they are professional carers, members of the family, or friends. It is the aim of Rotherham Hospice to ensure that all staff working within the Hospice and associated services are fully engaged and empowered to provide high-quality care. In addition, that all patients receiving care from the Hospice and associated services receive a high-quality service that is safe, effective, caring, responsive to patient needs, and well-led.
