Make a Referral
Hospice Waikato services are for people who have reached a palliative stage in their illness, where the focus of treatment is on comfort and quality of life, rather than a cure.
Hospice services are for patients with any advanced, progressive and life limiting disease that requires the services of a specialist palliative care team to assist in the management of care. Health professionals may refer patients when the complexity of the illness is such that specialist assistance is needed to achieve control of symptoms and provide social, psychological and spiritual support to the patient and family.
Referrals are prioritised according to the complexity of problems presented. Our standard is that contact is made to patient/whānau within 24 hours of receiving a referral.
