About this type of care

Urgent hospice care at home

Whether you're ill or looking after someone who is, you know that symptoms can change at any time, day or night. Terminal illness doesn't adhere to a schedule, so neither should the care you get. Urgent hospice care at home is there for you when you need it. Our Urgent Hospice Care at Home service is available in Ealing and Hounslow, Newham and City and Hackney, Bromley and Lewisham, Greenwich.

About this type of care

Enhanced hospice care at home

If your symptoms are so complex that you’d normally need to be cared for in hospital or the hospice, we can oversee your care at home. From specialist medical and nursing care to emotional and psychological support, enhanced hospice care at home provides hands-on hospice care in the comfort of your own home. Our Enhanced Hospice Care at Home service is available in Camden and Islington.

The Companion in Hospital service is available at Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital and St George’s Hospital.

About Marie Curie Companions

Advance care planning

Marie Curie works closely with local care homes, GPs and other healthcare professionals to help open up conversations about your future plans, wishes and care. Discussing and writing down your wishes, preferences and goals now means the people close to you, and those involved in your care, will be better able to support you in future. Once you’re referred to the service, a Marie Curie Nurse can visit you and help you work out and write down your plan, and share it with the people important to you. This service is currently available in care homes across Ealing and Hounslow, and to residents of Camden, Islington, Barnet, Enfield and Haringey.

Our hospice in Hampstead

Our Marie Curie Hospice, Hampstead is temporarily closed and not accepting in-patient referrals. Our Support and Wellbeing team continues to provide outpatient care and support at The Roy Shaw Centre. We’re currently delivering a new model of care to continue delivering expert care and support for people living with a terminal illness and those close to them in North Central London.
