Pendleside Hospice
We are a registered charity providing for the special needs of adults with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses.The purpose of a hospice is to improve the quality of life for its patients. This is achieved by the provision of specialist medical and nursing care and the provision of social, emotional and spiritual support for patients and their family and carers.
Care is given free of charge to those who need it.
We believe that hospice care for the people of Burnley and Pendle should extend far beyond the hospice building. Our aim and purpose is to promote the quality of life for each individual and his or her family and carers. We do this by delivering specialist care appropriate to each patient’s needs and family circumstances.
This encompasses a whole range of physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs. The hospice offers short term in-patient stays for symptom control, rehabilitation and respite care for patients who are eighteen years of age or over with cancer or other life-limiting illnesses. If a patient’s condition is stable but such that they cannot return home, alternative arrangements will be made for their on-going care. However, if they have reached the final stage of their illness, they may choose to stay in the hospice for care and support. Patients are admitted under the care of the hospice Medical Director.
