The Hospice is situated on the southern boundary of the Salisbury District Hospital. The Hospice Inpatient Unit has 10 beds in regular use. The Palliative Care at Home Services provides care for our patients. A team of five Community Nurses visit patients in their homes throughout the Salisbury area. The Hospital Palliative Care Team visit patients in local Hospitals. The Peter Gillam Support Centre provides activities and care for out-patients and their carers. A Family Support Team and voluntary counsellors provide Bereavement support. The Medical and Nursing staff have received recognition for their work in the field of Palliative Care and play an active role in providing training in such skills. There is a volunteer team of over 100 local people who support the work of the professional medical staff in a variety of ways.
