Wonderful new service!! ❤️xx

Today, we are proud to announce the launch of a new service to help people across Birmingham and Solihull to access specialist end of life and palliative care in their own homes, helping them to stay in familiar surroundings near their loved ones.

The SPUR (Specialist Palliative Urgent Response) service, which goes live today, will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It will take calls from patients and their families, as well as healthcare professionals, and either offer advice, signpost to relevant services, or arrange a home visit within two hours, bringing our expert skills directly into people's homes in times of crisis.

The initiative responds to longstanding gaps in out-of-hours palliative care provision, particularly overnight, where fragmented services have often led to undue stress for families and increased pressure on local emergency departments. The intention is that, by providing a single point of contact, patients and their families will be able to receive the support they need more quickly.

To access the service, from 8am-10pm please contact HoBS (Hospices of Birmingham and Solihull) on 0121 809 1900. Overnight (10pm-8am), please use our dedicated hotline number 0300 555 1919 (select option 2).

“A gift like no other “

It is with the family’s permission that I’d like to share with you the incredible generosity shown by them at a time of heartbreaking grief in supporting their relative’s decision to become an organ donor - a truly selfless act that has resulted in three people receiving life changing organ transplants.

It is thanks to the kindness of strangers that lives can be saved and transformed - giving the wonderful chance of a healthier and brighter future.

Each year, hundreds of opportunities for transplants are missed because families aren't sure what to do.

Your family will always be consulted about whether you wanted to be an organ donor or not, and clinicians will never proceed with organ donation if your family or loved ones object.

If you want to be an organ donor after you die, it's really important that you talk to your loved ones and make sure they understand and support your organ donation decision. You can also register your decision on the NHS Organ Donor Register.

Perhaps now is the time to talk to your loved ones - so that opportunities for transplants aren’t missed because families aren't sure what to do.

Transplant truly is the gift like no other 🤍🤍###
