Patient referral

Individuals are referred to the Hospice either by their GP, Community Macmillan Nurses, District Nurses, hospital Doctors or Oncologists. It can be a frightening time and initially some may be unwilling to attend the Hospice. Before making any decisions, the individual and family members are always welcome to come and look around St Michael’s and meet the staff.

St Michael’s cannot accept referrals from individuals or their families and would advise people to discuss the appropriateness of referral with their GP.

If you or your loved one has been referred to St Michael’s and you would like to arrange a visit, please call 01432 851000.
