End of life care
Zoë’s Place is able to offer end of life care to children ages 0-6.
We liaise closely with your child’s consultant and work in partnership with other agencies to provide specialised end of life care.
All our nurses (and care team) are trained in caring for children with complex needs. They provide individualised ‘family centred’ care for the children accessing our hospice, offering the utmost compassion to all families and children – ensuring dignity is always maintained.
Our hospices also have end of life care facilities for you and your child.
We can offer the use of self-contained accommodation to use (if you wish), so you can be close to your child at difficult times.
Bereavement suites
If a child passes away during their time at Zoë’s Place, families can use our on site bereavement suites. They are:
Coventry – The Starlight Suite
Middlesbrough – The Rainbow Suite
Liverpool – The Snowdrop Suite
Each suite differs very slightly, but all have a specialist cool room, bed, television, kitchen, lounge area and storage drawers/cupboards.
Families are welcome to stay in these suites while arrangements are being made with funeral directors and churches etc.
Staff will also be on hand to offer support, bereavement care and general advice.
