Reception conversation

For patients: about our care

Peace of mind, contentment and relief from pain and other symptoms are central to everything we do for our patients.

How you become a patient

To become a patient of ours you need to be referred to us by a health professional. Here's how it works.

Medical and nursing care

Our medical and nursing care is planned and provided by a highly-qualified, specialist team of medical consultants, specialist registrars, doctors and nurses.

Our community nursing team

The Community Specialist Palliative Care Nurses (our ‘community team’ for short) support patients in their own homes throughout Sheffield.

Our Therapies and Rehabilitation Centre

The Therapies and Rehabilitation Centre is here to improve the quality of life for people who are receiving palliative care while living at home.

Services for patients

Services for our patients are free of charge. Some extend to patients' families too, for example our Bereavement Service.

For carers

What's it like when the person you're caring for becomes a St Luke's patient? Families and carers are important to us too.

For carers: more about our care

St Luke's services that the person you're caring for may benefit from; and what you can expect, depending on their illness.

We welcome your views
