About Hospices
A hospice is more than just four walls and a roof, a hospice is an ethos, a way of caring for people when they need it the most. Hospices seek to add value to the lives of those with terminal illnesses and the elderly, to enable them to live as long and as fully as they can.

There is a common misbelief that a hospice is where everyone goes to die. That is not true. The average stay in a hospice is twelve to fourteen days, after which many patients return home.
