Service Description / Overview
Wimmera Hospice Care is a palliative care service that supports people living with life limiting illnesses and their families and carers.  Our team supports patients at home, in aged care facilities and whilst in hospital.  The Wimmera Hospice Care team works with the patient's local doctors, nurses and allied health care team to provide care.
Palliative Care or Hospice Care is about:
*    Treating symptoms and making patients comfortable when cure is not possible or is unlikely
*    Supporting patients to have the best quality of life possible
*    Supporting family and carers during the patient's illness and during bereavement if required
*    Helping with not just the physical problems, but the emotional, spiritual, and social issues that may happen as a result of illness
