St Andrew's Hospice
St Andrew's Hospice provides specialist palliative care services - the total care of patients with progressive disease and limited prognosis - and is open to all, without distinction of race, gender, or creed. It is Lanarkshire's only Specialist Hospice and provides multidisciplinary support for patients, their families, and carers.
Over the years, the Hospice has grown to support the needs of the community by looking ahead to innovative changes and future patient and family requirements.From Modest Beginnings of just 4 beds for the terminally ill, St Andrew's now offers:
* A 26 bedded specialist palliative care unit moving towards 30 beds
* A 2 bed respite care service for older adults living in the community and young chronic sick
* A Day Hospice offering care for up to 60 patients every week
* A Care at Home service for those patients who choose to want to die at home
* A specialist range of support services
* A consultant led domiciliary service
* A telephone palliative care advice line
* An education service to support the understanding of palliative care in Lanarkshire and the involvement of Hospice medical staff in palliative care provision in the three District General Hospitals and clinics across the County
