Support for patients, families/whānau and carers
The Family Support team is an integral part of Arohanui Hospice; caring not only for patients but also for all those involved and touched by life-limiting conditions.
We recognise that each patient and family/whānau is unique and approach these journeys with their own resources and challenges.
The Family Support team consists of professionals who specialise in assessing and providing patients and families/whānau with:
- emotions/feelings
- spiritual care
- adjustment to changing situations and expectations
- psychological distress
- social support
