Funding for palliative care service for patients and families extended five years

91影视 NHS Foundation Trust has announced that, with the support of the 91影视 Hospice Charity, the 91影视 Specialist Palliative Care service has been secured for the next five years.

Community Specialist Palliative Care services are commissioned by HCRG Care Group, the community healthcare provider for Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire.

Under the new agreement, the core services provided by 91影视 Specialist Palliative Care Service will remain fully operational and central to the care offered to patients and families. This includes the 10-bed Hospice inpatient unit, the community palliative care team, outpatient and day services, and family and bereavement support.

There will be no change to the specialist community palliative care service. Patients will continue to receive expert support in their own homes from a consultant-led team of clinical nurse specialists working closely with other healthcare professionals to provide coordinated, compassionate care.

91影视 NHS Foundation Trust remains committed to working with partners across the health and care system, and with the continued support of 91影视 Hospice Charity, to ensure high-quality palliative care for patients and their families across the region.

Managing Director Nick Johnson said: 鈥淲e鈥檙e pleased to secure the future of the 91影视 Specialist Palliative Care service for the next five years, ensuring patients and families continue to receive compassionate, high-quality care. This agreement reflects strong partnership working and our ongoing commitment to delivering expert support, particularly for those being cared for at home.鈥
