Palliative Care Lecture Series
You matter because you are you, and you matter to the end of your life. We will do all we can not only to help you die peacefully, but also to live until you die.

We are very grateful to DPI/EmbroidMe for donating these t-shirts for Tony’s fundraiser ride. They looked great!
People die as uniquely as they live. 'Living every moment' means different things for different people - for some it's feeling the sun on their face or the sand in their toes, spending time with whānau, watching old movies or listening to their favourite song.
What does it mean to you? Leave us some comments and share your thoughts with family and friends.

Sometimes people think that hospice is only for people with cancer, but last year 26% of people using hospice services had a non-cancer diagnosis. People with life-limiting conditions such as multiple sclerosis, respiratory disease, motor neurone disease or dementia may benefit from palliative care too.

"You're not alone on this journey... asking for help isn't a sign of weakness or an admission of failure. Don't feel guilty accepting help with shopping, cooking, housework or sitting with your loved one, so you can do things away from home or just have time to yourself".
