Hospice at Home Carlisle and North Lakeland is a registered charity providing a free nursing service for people at the end stages of life who prefer to be cared for in their own homes with all that is familiar about them, and gives support and help to the carers, within rural North and East Cumbria and the city of Carlisle.

Working closely with the family, District Nurses and other members of the Primary Health Care Team the Hospice at Home service carefully and sensitively assesses the amount of care needed. During the episode of care the nursing and support team build up a close relationship with the patient and immediate family and carers. The service extends into the bereavement period.
