What is palliative care?
Palliative care describes the physical, psychological and social care and support given to people who have an illness or disease that cannot be cured. The goal of palliative care is to achieve the best possible quality of life for patients and to help with the concerns of the patients and their families.
What is the Palliative Care Access Point?
The Warrington Palliative Care Access Point is based at St. Rocco’s Hospice. We work with local care providers, GPs, district nurses, community nurses, specialist nurses and other health and social care professionals to coordinate and provide the best possible care.
Who can access service through the Palliative Care Access Point?
All palliative patients with a Warrington GP over the age of 18 can be referred to or contact the access point for advice and support.
You can call the Warrington Palliative Care Access Point (PCAP) on 03333 661066. You can contact us 9am-5pm Monday to Friday.
Monday to Friday you will speak to an administrator who will take time to listen and will work together with you and your local GPs, community and hospice services to ensure you receive the best possible care/support.
