This year has been a very busy year for Prospect Hospice with our services in greater demand than ever before and with the festive season approaching, we want to make sure all our patients are receiving the support they need for them to celebrate their final Christmas.
For many of our patients, wanting to be at home at Christmas surrounded by their family will be a priority so our care doesn’t stop over the Christmas period. We are there, by their side, even on Christmas Day.
This is only possible thanks to your support; ensuring we can be there for our patients both in the Hospice and in their own homes, managing their pain, making sure they have everything they need and above all, making sure they are comfortable and happy.
Mel Buckley is team leader of our single point of contact team, the first point of call for accessing our services. She kindly let us see excerpts from her diary to give us a small insight into her week.
