Little Haven’s nurses are on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week giving professional palliative nursing and guidance to carers. All our care is provided in the home and is given completely free of charge.
Palliative Care is the “Active total care of patients whose disease is not responsive to curative treatments.”
The Greek Physician Hippocrates, said ”It is more important to know the person who has the disease than it is to know the disease that the person has”! That pretty well sums up our approach to palliative care. As such every patient will have different needs and care will be individually tailored to those needs. Little Haven’s model of care takes a holistic approach to patient care which treats the whole patient, addressing all of the patient’s physical, social, emotional, psychological and spiritual needs.
