FAQs

There are no fees or charges for this specialised care.

If you move to a rest home the Community Team will continue to visit you and remain in contact with your family.

Although we are a short-stay unit and we only have six beds, there is no set time limit. Decisions regarding discharge home or to a rest home are made with you and your family.

No – we can offer support for patients with any incurable illness – we only need a referral.
