Rowcroft Hospice Reviews | Rating 5 out of 5 stars (5 reviews)

Rowcroft Hospice is located in Torquay, United Kingdom on Avenue Rd. Rowcroft Hospice is rated 5 out of 5 in the category charity in United Kingdom. It takes time, compassion, patience, medical expertise and money to help patients and families make the most of every day, but every year we help over 2,000 people living with life-limiting illnesses in South Devon to do just that. By providing comfort, support and specialist services in our patients’ homes, in the community and at our Inpatient Unit in Torquay, we enable families to share precious and joyful moments when they are needed most – whether it’s a beautiful wedding, remarkable reunion, simple thank you or gentle cuddle. At our premises in Torquay, our team of doctors, nurses, social workers and a range of other health and social care professionals provide specialist care in our 12-bed Inpatient Unit. We also care for out-patients and their loved ones, offering therapies, bereavement support and medical consultation in an environment that helps patients and families make the most of precious time together. From Dartmouth to Dawlish, we care for ¾ of our patients in their own homes with a team of community nurses, social workers, physiotherapists, occupational therapists and bereavement counsellors delivering a holistic approach tailored to individual needs. Last year it cost £8.7 million to provide our services. As an independent charity, more than 70% of our funding comes from the incredible generosity of local people, without whom we would not be able to fund our work. We’re determined to make sure every penny raised from your donations continues to help patients and their loved ones make the most of every moment they have together. Together, we can make every day the best day possible

My daughter Mandy was in Rowcroft for three weeks before being transferred to another Hospice in Buckinghamshire May 2020; I was unable to physically visit her due to Covid19 restrictions at that time, but was in constant contact with her and she asked me to thank each and every one of the team for the amazing care she received. She was young and unconventional and I appreciated the way you respected her choices, her homeopathy and values. Thank you initially to Dr Paul, subsequently Dr George for overseeing her care, and Dr George in particular for arranging her transfer; she got her end of life wish, to spend her end of life with her Mum She and I are eternally grateful for that window of time. I am sending a donation on Mandy's behalf to help continue the amazing work you do. Thank you seems inadequate, but THANK YOU
