Rowans Hospice hosts the Palliative Care Support Hub in partnership with Hampshire and Isle of Wight Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust (previously Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust and Solent NHS Trust) and Portsmouth Hospitals University Trust.
Patients, carers or health professionals can call the Hub on 023 9225 0001 option 1 between 9:00am – 5:00pm Monday to Friday. Here you will speak to a specialist Clinician or Administrator who will be able to offer support and advice to help coordinate your care. Outside of these hours advice and support is available to healthcare professionals.
We work with local care providers, GPs, district nurses, Macmillan nurses, specialist nurses and other health and social care professionals to coordinate and provide the best possible care.
