Our care is about so much more than the specialist palliative treatment of a person’s physical symptoms. It is a total philosophy of care; offering spiritual and emotional support that extends to family members and carers.

Helping each person we care for get the best out of every day and to make each day count.
Jersey Hospice Care provides specialist palliative care to all those with a life limiting illness. As a result, more than half of the patients we now care for do not have cancer.
Jersey Hospice Care was started by the community, for the community - and to this day, the care provided continues to be possible thanks to the community that supports Hospice so generously each year.
