Palliative care hub
Our 24-hour advice and support line is for anyone in the local area who has, or cares for someone who has, a life-limiting illness.
We're here to help
The Milton Keynes Palliative Care Community Hub is a free 24-hour advice and support line for any adult with a life-limiting illness who’s registered with a Milton Keynes GP. It’s also open to patients’ carers and family members, as well as healthcare professionals.
We can help you with:
Practical advice and support
Relieving your symptoms
Emotional
support
Medication advice
Planning your future care
We can also direct you to other local health and care services if you’re not sure who best to turn to, making sure your care is co-ordinated in the last few years of life.
Day or night, you can call our team for support and reassurance with any concerns you may have.
Staff from our experienced Willen at Home and In-Patient Unit teams answer the hub line. They work closely with healthcare providers, including GPs, the hospital, community nursing teams and paramedics, to make sure patients’ care is coordinated.
The hub was set up with the support of the Bedford, Luton and Milton Keynes (BLMK) Clinical Commissioning Group.
For free advice and support, call the hub on 01908 306962.
