- Respite and support for relatives and carers

We will be liaising with district and community nurses, GP's and consultants who will be our means to provide:

- Advice on living wills
The PALLS team focuses on quality of life and a whole person approach, we offer care that encompasses both the person with the life threatening illness and those that matter to that person.
Our definition of Palliative Care applies to all disease processes addressing all life limiting illnesses with an 'active' holistic approach to patients with advanced progressive illness.
