Using the Hardship Fund Ludlow, Rotary Club has helped St Michael’s Hospice, Hereford to continue to develop their “Hospice at Home” Service. This increasingly important service helps ensure that patients can be cared for in the familiar surroundings of their own home. The club funded an otoscope are to augment the equipment nursing staff carry with them on home visits.
Whilst fighting Covid dominates our health service, hospices such as St Michael’s are quietly continuing to support their local communities. In the last year St Michael’s has supported in North Herefordshire and South Shropshire some 86 patients and their families.
