About Queenscourt hospice
Queenscourt Hospice: Providing Compassionate Care for Patients with Serious Illnesses
Queenscourt Hospice is a local charity that has been providing compassionate care and support for patients with serious illnesses in Southport, Formby, and West Lancs since 1985. The hospice is dedicated to helping patients achieve the best possible quality of life at each new stage of their illness.
At Queenscourt Hospice, we understand that dealing with a serious illness can be overwhelming and challenging. That's why we offer a range of services to help patients and their families cope with the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of their illness.
Our In-Patient Unit
Our in-patient unit provides specialist palliative care for patients who require round-the-clock medical attention. Our team of experienced doctors, nurses, and healthcare assistants work together to provide individualized care plans tailored to meet each patient's unique needs.
We also have a range of facilities available on our in-patient unit including private rooms with en-suite bathrooms, communal areas where patients can socialize or relax with family members or friends. We also have access to complementary therapies such as aromatherapy massage or reflexology which can help alleviate symptoms such as pain or anxiety.
Queenscourt Connect
Queenscourt Connect is our day therapy service which provides support for people living at home who need additional help managing their symptoms. Our team includes specialist nurses who are trained in symptom management techniques such as pain relief medication administration or wound dressing changes.
We also offer complementary therapies such as art therapy sessions which can help improve mood levels by providing an outlet for self-expression through creative activities like painting or drawing.
Queenscourt at Home
Our Queenscourt at Home service provides practical support for people living at home who need assistance managing daily tasks like washing clothes or preparing meals. We also provide respite care services so that carers can take some time off from caring responsibilities while knowing that their loved one is in safe hands.
Our team of healthcare assistants are trained to provide compassionate care and support for patients with serious illnesses. They work closely with our specialist nurses to ensure that patients receive the best possible care at home.
Fundraising
Queenscourt Hospice relies on donations from the local community to continue providing our vital services. We organize a range of fundraising events throughout the year including sponsored walks, charity balls, and coffee mornings.
We also have a network of volunteers who help us raise awareness about our services and support us in various ways such as helping out at fundraising events or providing administrative assistance in our offices.
