Introduction to Patient Services

We have recently launched our new Central Referral Centre. We now have a new streamlined information, advice, and referral process. For general information and advice, or for healthcare professional referrals to all patient services, there is now only ONE number - 0845 070 8910. In this section we explain these new, important changes.

Leaflets about our services that you can download and print.

In this section you will find information about our inpatient services and get a feel for the lovely Hospice environment. There are two inpatient units, one in Taunton and one in Yeovil.

St. Margaret's offers a wide range of services in people's own homes, in nursing homes, within the two district hospitals and in the community. We support patient and carers.

We have many ways to help alliviate difficulties for our patients. These include offering Day Care, breathlessness management, specialist lymphoedema treatment and complementary therapies.

We support families and carers throughout, including the time after a patient has died.

Somerset Cancer Care is a division of St Margaret's Somerset Hospice, and works with people living with cancer, at any stage.
