Our Hospice at Home and Respite Care Services
Hospice at Home (H@H) is part of HospiceCare North Northumberland; a small charity based in Alnwick. H@H provides support to patients at the end of life across our clinical catchment area. Care provision is led by our team of experienced Registered Nurses, and provided by our Hospice Support workers. Care and support are designed to meet the needs of the patients at the end of life, and their families, through regular daily visits or calls that are more ad hoc in nature. In addition, we offer respite night shifts where appropriate.
If you or a family member feel you could benefit from H@H you will first need to speak to your GP or District Nurse so they can make a referral to us.

We invite you to watch our short film featuring The Grey family talking about the impact of our end-of-life care for their Dad/Husband that enabled him to die at home, which was his wish.
Our Impact
"Your Hospice care team was professional at all times. Treated both my husband and I with the utmost respect and understanding. Made a very sad time bearable as they did everything they could to make my husband comfortable"
