St Clare Hospice & their services

Where we care

Our wide range of services are designed to meet the needs of our local community.

​

At St Clare, we form part of a network of around 200 hospices across the UK, each providing free, palliative care services within their NHS commissioned ‘catchment areas’.

​

The St Clare Hospice catchment area is West Essex and East Hertfordshire – the community in which we serve and aim to provide responsive care and support for.

Hand in hand we care

Who we are and what we do

​

St Clare Hospice is a charity providing specialist palliative care to improve the lives of people affected by a life-limiting illness in West Essex and the borders of East Hertfordshire. Our approach to care enables people, their families, and carers, to make the most of every moment together, no matter how long they have left to live, supporting them whether at home or in the Hospice.

​

With limited NHS funding, we need to raise around 56% of our costs each year to provide our vital services; in 2020/2021 our costs were £4.6 million and are forecast to rise to over £5m next year. We therefore rely on our local community to help us raise money each year so we can continue being there for local families facing one of the most difficult journeys in life.

Our care

​

We offer a range of free, palliative and end of life care services to suit the needs of all local people who are facing death, dying and bereavement.

 

Hospice care at St Clare is varied, and aims to provide a holistic approach to a person’s overall wellbeing. Our support ranges from:

 

  • Specialist, medical care, either on our Inpatient Unit or through our Hospice at Home and Community Palliative Care Team

  • Therapeutic support via our Wellbeing teams, to help people manage their illness and live well independently and meet their goals

  • Psychological, emotional, spiritual and practical support designed to help people navigate their journey

  • Bereavement support, tailored to a person’s needs – whether their loss was recent or a long time ago

  • Community-based services to help support local people’s overall wellbeing
