Welcome to St Anne’s Hospice
In September 1994, St Anne’s Hospice, Gwent’s only specialist
‘in-patient’ palliative care unit admitted the first patient with an advancing life
limiting illness to an environment of peace, calm and caring. This experience still
remains today, alongside the holistic care provided by a resourceful multidisciplinary
team where regard for the family and carer is equally important. This year, thanks
to initial funding from the Welsh Assembly Government, we have been fortunate to
extend the team with the skills of an occupational therapist, enhancing the care
even further.
Undoubtedly, the NHS offers many excellent services to patients. However, as the
end of life approaches, care is predominantly provided by voluntary organisations
such as St Anne’s, which we are happy to do, but funding is key to our being able
to continue to provide the free specialist palliative care needed by so many. This
site seeks to provide an insight into our work, our needs, people we help, people
who help us. We hope it inspires you to support us in some way.
