Welcome to Hospice Southland and Queenstown Community Hospice. We provide palliative care for those with a life ending condition. We help manage your symptoms to allow you to live the time you have left as best you can. This may be in our Inpatient Unit or in your home. This is at no cost thanks to the generous support of our communities.
Hospice Southland is a health charity that provides specialist palliative care to people with a life-limiting illness in Southland and the Wakatipu Basin free of charge 24/7 either in hospice, at home or in aged residential care.
We are committed to authentic partnership under Te Tiriti o Waitangi (Waitangi Treaty) to improve outcomes for Maori and Pacific people in our care.
Our team includes specialist doctors, nurses, social workers and counsellors committed to supporting patients to live every moment.

Hospice Southland receives just under 50% of funding from the Ministry of Health
This leaves a shortfall of $2.1million to be raised each year to keep our services free of charge. This shortfall is met through the generosity of the Southland and Wakatipu communities through grants, bequests, donations fundraisers and events.
