Palliative Care In Shepparton

General Info

Goulburn Valley Hospice Care Service is a specialist palliative care service supporting people living in the city of Shepparton.

Goulburn Valley Hospice Care Service was established in 1989 in response to a deficiency in available specialist palliative care services, as reflected by an increasing number of terminally ill patients being admitted to acute care services (Hospital), with limited or no grief or bereavement support.

Goulburn Valley Hospice Care Service supports people with a life threatening illness to live well and, in doing so, provides support within the person home to improve the quality of life of individuals, carers and families. A nurse is available to discuss a person’s concern anytime of the day or night. A team ensures the carer and family has someone to guide and support them, whenever they need. People can be referred to the service by treating doctors, local hospitals, treating specialists, allied health professionals, by self or by family members and friends.
