latest reviews
I have been employed at Bassetlaw Hospice (Cedar House) for almost 13 years, working initially in the In Patient Unit as a Staff Nurse and currently as the Senior Nurse in the Day Care Unit. Bassetlaw Hospice has been supporting patients across Bassetlaw for 16yrs, during this time it has achieved an excellent reputation for the gold standard of care it delivers to patients and their carers. Our aim is to ensure all patients and the carerâs physical, emotional, spiritual and psychological needs are met. The hospice staff and volunteers are very proud of the unique environment. It is situated by the canal and has pleasant landscaped gardens, a summer house and numerous seated areas. The interior is equally inviting, tastefully decorated to a high standard and always well maintained, and is supplied with all aids and equipment that may be required during a patientâs stay in Cedar House. We are able to offer such quality care and support in these wonderful surroundings because of Bassetlaw Hospice Charity. The Charity Trustees, Fund Raisers and the large team of volunteers working tirelessly to fund raise across Bassetlaw.
I am a volunteer driver and helper in respect of Daycare Patients at Bassetlaw Hospice. The Hospice also cater for In-patients and provides a range of services to all patients, not just medical, but sympathetic care and attention regarding their problems. The feedback I have personally obtained from both Inpatient Unit and Daycare patients is of their high regard & praise for the staff, quality of care and attention received. Many of the Daycare Patients look upon the weekly visit to the Hospice as their highlight of the week, some for which it is their only day out. The hospice is so well thought of by the Patients, that it merits without question a 5 star rating.
