Helping you live well with your illness
If you are living with a life-limiting illness, we are here to support you. Our Family Support Service works across the community, visiting people in their own homes, as well as supporting patients in our Chelmsford hospice building and Inpatient Unit.
Support is tailored to your individual needs and may include:
- Information about life-limiting illnesses and their impact on you and your family
- Counselling
- Emotional support
- Advocacy and practical support, including housing, funeral planning and planning for future care
- Signposting to financial and welfare advice
- Support by phone, video call or in person
- One-to-one, couple, family or group support
- Specialist self-management courses for patients
- Opportunities for peer support with others in similar situations
