Our vision is to support people with terminal illness to live and die well. Otago Community Hospice is a centre of excellence providing the highest quality specialist palliative care and support to patients and their families throughout Otago.
Lat year, we served 684 patients to live and die well. We've driven far and wide to deliver this mission - 420 thousand approximately! Across Otago, we provided 2244 total visits to those in need.
The Hospice has grown and matured in response to its community. A forward-thinking, community-minded group of Dunedin people identified a need for a hospice unit 30 years ago. It has evolved from a small cottage industry caring for a handful of patients into a sizable, professional essential service caring for more than 700 people and their families each year.
The Hospice has developed into a highly adaptive service, continuously striving to improve our community outreach, our inpatient service and our teams’ knowledge as well as striving to increase industry knowledge in our specialty area.
