Hospice Community Outreach Team – SHSCT area

The Hospice Community Outreach Team works with people with a palliative diagnosis, their family members and also those who have been bereaved through palliative illness.

This team is fully operational and that the group sessions are now up and running from our Hospice Hubs in Newry and Dungannon.

This support can be provided in our Hospice Hubs or the person’s home, and can include spiritual support, social work support, complementary therapy, physiotherapy and nursing support.

In relation to groups – we have a 6-week programme – “Living Well, Thinking Well” which supports patients with a palliative diagnosis.
In addition, a 3-week programme is being rolled out for carers who are looking after someone with a palliative illness. Suitable for Palliative Care / Terminally ill.
