Our Care
Here at Wakefield Hospice we are committed to providing the highest level of symptom management and care for people who have advanced active, progressive and life threatening illness.
Our Care

Wakefield Hospice is a purpose-built specialist palliative care unit that opened in April 1990 providing 8 single ensuite bedrooms and 2 four bed ward areas, a day therapy unit, bereavement support and education.
 
Over the years the day care unit developed initially into a day therapy unit and ultimately into a drop-In centre providing therapies, information and care for patients, carers and bereaved families.
