St Joseph’s Hospice

St Joseph’s Hospice cares for and supports people affected by serious illness. We try to improve the quality of life for people with life-limiting conditions and help them live life to the full, to the very end. Supporting families and carers is also an important part of what we do.

St Joseph’s Hospice first opened in 1905 and since then has been caring for and supporting people affected by serious illness. We try to improve the quality of life for people with life-limiting conditions and help them live life to the full, to the very end. Supporting families and carers is also an important part of what we do.

We care for people living in North and East London and our hospice services
include:

palliative care
nursing and medical care
emotional support
practical advice
physical and psychological therapies
spiritual care (for those who want it)
social and creative activities.

Our staff are experts in caring for people who have life-limiting conditions or who are coming to the end of their life, and in supporting families and carers. We provide that care in a number of settings at the hospice and in the local community including at the patient’s own home if that is what they would prefer. Our care is holistic and is driven by what the patient wants.
We treat everyone as an individual and help them to reach their full potential whenever we can.
