Hospice at Home

The Choice to Die Peacefully at Home

Everyone deserves the right, if possible, to choose where they die. Our Hospice at Home service is a vital part of the hospice’s care, providing compassionate, high-quality support to patients in the comfort of their own homes. This service allows individuals with life-limiting illnesses to receive the specialist care they need in a familiar and comforting environment, surrounded by their loved ones.

Expert Care in the Comfort of your Home

Our team of registered nurses and palliative nursing assistants provide personal and clinical care along with emotional support for patients and those around them – day and night. Our Rapid Response service operates through the night to respond to unplanned care needs.
Our Hospice at Home service allows patients to stay in their preferred place of care, making it possible for them to spend their final days with dignity, surrounded by family, and receiving the expert care that Tapping House is known for.
