Information for professionals

Working together to support patient care

We share our expertise with GPs, district nurses, care homes, and other health and social care professionals through joint working and education programmes – helping people who may never access hospice services directly.

Our team works closely with GPs, district nurses, and the Hospital Specialist Palliative Care Team to coordinate care for patients and those important to them.

Every day, we join meetings with other healthcare professionals to make sure patients in the Wigan borough get the right support from the right service at the right time.
