The Chaplaincy

In-patient Hospice c/o QEII Hospital Howlands Welwyn Garden City Herts AL7 4HQ Telephone: 01707 382500

Our Chaplain, Revd Dorothy Moore Brooks (right) and Pastoral Carer, Sue Jeppesen (left), are available to support you and your family. They are here for patients and families of any or no faith.

Each Wednesday evening there is a short service in the Inpatient Unit to which everyone is welcome whatever your faith perspective. Dorothy and Sue are available most weekdays in the IPU and visit the day hospices regularly. Your own priest, vicar, pastor, rabbi etc is welcome to visit you at any time in the IPU.

All of us at Isabel Hospice would like to support you and your family.

We know that you need not just physical support but emotional and spiritual care too.

You may have questions:

• Why is this happening to me?

• I feel I have lost control of my life - can I regain it?

• How will it affect my family and our future?

• Life feels meaningless - can anyone help me make sense of it?


We can do this by:

• Coming to meet you at home


• Meeting you at the Day Hospice, or at one of the satellite facilities


• Or in the In-Patient Hospice


• Speaking on the telephone


• Or through your Community Nurse Specialist

If you would like any further information on any aspect of spiritual care, please call the above number or let your nurse know at the In-Patient Hospice, Day Hospice or your Community Nurse Specialist.
