Does being referred to North Haven Hospice mean I will die shortly?

Being referred to us doesn’t always mean that death is likely to happen straight away. It depends on how early your illness or life-limiting condition was diagnosed. Most people are referred to our care when they are expected to live for 12 months or less.

Hospice care means that a person’s symptoms are complex and often require specialist expertise to help.

People in our care are always in control of the decisions regarding their treatment and how they and their family and whānau are supported.
