Elderly Care

Rennie Grove Peace Hospice – Living Well Services

Living Well support - such as exercise and wellbeing classes - is now being offered to patients with a progressive life-limiting illness, right from diagnosis. Rennie Grove Peace now offers Living Well classes in St Albans and Watford.

This early support is designed to give patients the confidence to live well with their illness and includes:

• Emotional support to help individuals cope with a diagnosis and its impact
• Exercise and wellbeing classes
• Complementary therapies, such as massage and reflexology
• Specialist clinics to help manage symptoms like breathlessness and fatigue
• An 8-week Living Well programme designed to build confidence when living with a serious illness
• Support to think ahead and plan future care (where patients complete an Advance Care Plan)
• Gardening groups and social activities to improve mental wellbeing and reduce feelings of isolation
