St Francis Hospice, Port Elizabeth

St Francis Hospice, Port Elizabeth Providing palliative care since 1984. We serve the greater Nelson Mandela Bay and Kouga Area. Our care is available to all, irrespective of their ability to pay.

Hospice is both a program and a philosophy of care that is dedicated to improving the quality of life for patients with a life threatening illness. Hospice provides a program of palliative care which encompasses the holistic care of patients whose disease is no longer responsive to curative treatment. St Francis Hospice currently provides comprehensive home-based palliative care to ±240 patients per month in the Nelson Mandela Metro and surrounds, serving people who are in the final stages of an illness such as Cancer, Aids, TB or Motor Neurone disease and giving support to their families, some of whom live in abject poverty.
