To be at the heart of our community and provide Home Nursing, Emotional Support, Complementary Therapies, and Lymphoedema Care when and where needed.
Home Nursing is at the heart of Hospice at Home West Cumbria. We provide skilled nursing care on a one-to-one basis to adults within their own home or alternative residential settings, enabling them to remain in their chosen place of care at end of life. We deliver a range of Family and Bereavement Support Services for families, carers and those bereaved; these include one-to-one support, group support and complementary therapy. This support enables people to cope during the most difficult and challenging times in their lives. We are also the sole providers of Specialist Lymphoedema Care in West Cumbria. This is a particularly challenging condition that affects many people. It can be as a result of cancer or cancer treatment but it can also be caused by other non-cancer related conditions. Our care and support is available to those with a life limiting illness, regardless of cause, and is offered for free at the point of need.
