Our Lady's Hospice & Care Services, Harold's Cross Hospice, Blackrock Hospice & Wicklow Hospice
by Our Lady's Hospice Limited
Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services (OLH&CS) provides specialist care for a catchment of over a million people with a wide range of needs from residential rehabilitation to end-of-life care, from our bases in Harold’s Cross Hospice (est. 1879), Blackrock Hospice (est. 2003), and Wicklow Hospice (est. 2020).
Driven by patient needs, over 730 staff and approximately 400 volunteers provide world class person-centred holistic care to help over 5,000 patients and residents achieve their best quality of life and support.
We provide three core services, which are supported by education and research, the bedrock of quality healthcare.
Specialist palliative care is delivered in each of our locations, making us the largest provider in Ireland. Our campus in Harold’s Cross also houses our Rheumatic & Musculoskeletal Disease Unit and our Care of the Older Person service comprising our Community Rehabilitation Unit and a residential unit.
As we take a holistic approach to our care, we look after the wellbeing of the whole person as well as their loved ones and we offer information and bereavement support for families.
Our fundraising function provides ongoing support and much needed investment to further develop services. Located at all three sites, we need over €5.5m to support and enhance our services and shortfall in funding.
Our achievements are built upon the generosity of thousands of individuals, groups, and companies every year. Their commitment and compassion, along with funding from the HSE, enables us to continually improve and enhance high quality care.
Thank you for your support to the patients and families under our care in our three hospices, we are immensely grateful to you and your company.
