Our Mission & Vision

Our Mission Statement

Kilbryde Hospice is a voluntary independent hospice which exists to provide compassionate, specialist palliative care to people with life limiting progressive illnesses and to their relatives and carers.

Our services are free and available to those people with palliative care needs. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, colour, faith, national origin, disability, sexual orientation, age or financial means

Vision

We are committed to providing the specialist care of a highest standard for people with a life-limiting progressive illness, and aim to add quality and meaning to their life.

Our aims

• For each individual we will ensure compassionate care and support throughout their journey, recognising their individual choices and respecting their dignity.
• We aim to create a therapeutic environment that is calm, relaxing and friendly, and which allows individuals and families comfort, privacy and dignity.
• We respect the individuality of each person and offer the freedom to express and practice religious, spiritual, philosophical and cultural beliefs.
• Care also extends to those people who are close to the patient, and into the bereavement period after the person has died.
• We will work collaboratively with NHS Lanarkshire, Integrated Joint Boards of North and South Lanarkshire and other service providers in the development of localised palliative care services and to ensure responsive, seamless care.
• We are committed to further development and improvement of our services through consultation with stakeholders.
• We will recruit, train and develop our staff and volunteers to achieve continuous quality improvement in our provision of care.
• We will manage our business model and resources proficiently to achieve sustainability over the long term.
