Acorns care services
Acorns Children’s Hospice provides care for babies, children and young people aged 0-18 years who have life limiting or life threatening conditions, and associated complex needs. We offer a network of specialist palliative nursing care and support from our three hospices.
Care and support is delivered in response to the individual needs of a child and their family with a package of care tailored for each child that includes their medical, emotional, cultural, religious and spiritual needs. This package is provided in each of our three hospices and the wider community, including outreach care in a family’s home.
