Hospice is a special way of caring for people who have an advanced, progressive and life limiting disease that requires the services of a specialist palliative care team.
Hospice Waikato is committed to delivering the latest and most innovative approaches in pain and symptom management. Our focus is on improving a patient’s quality of life by creating a more comfortable environment for them and their loved ones. Hospice care provides the physical, emotional, and spiritual support that you and your family need during this time.
Our interdisciplinary team works directly with your doctor and other health professionals involved in your care to ensure you receive the care you deserve.
Hospice Waikato provides its services free of charge to anyone who needs them across the Waikato, King Country and Thames-Coromandel, mirroring the region also covered by the Waikato District Health Board
