Nottinghamshire Hospice is a registered charity and regulated by the Care Quality Commision. It cares for people who are registered with a GP within Nottinghamshire City and County that have been diagnosed with any Life Limiting Illness. All Nottinghamshire Hospice Services are delivered and based on individual patient needs; it is a way of caring for people. We aim to add life to days for people that have been told that their illness cannot be cured. It helps people to live as actively as possible once they have been diagnosed until the end of their lives, however long that may be. The highest value is put on dignity, choice and respect.
Nottinghamshire Hospice offers a free service to patients and their loved ones which aims to take care of not only the physical needs of patients but also values their emotional, spiritual and social needs. We provide support to families and close friends, both during the illness and in bereavement.
Nottinghamshire Hospice works in close partnership with other Palliative care providers across the East Midlands to ensure a consistency of high quality palliative care. Location map...

What Nottinghamshire Hospice means to meSheila Bramley: "For Mum the Hospice was her oasis in life. Had she been able she would have moved in!
