Welcome to Hospice South Auckland
Hospice South Auckland offers a comprehensive hospice/palliative care service. Our services are free to all patients and their caregivers, thanks to the generosity of the people in the community who make donations and bequests to help meet costs.
We support people living in the South Auckland area. This covers from Mangere, Pananma Rd (Mt Wellington) to Bucklands Beach in the north to Karaka, Drury, Ararimu and across to Matingarahi in the south.
Our services include:
- Community palliative care
- An In Patient Unit with 9 beds
- Counselling support for patients and family
- Education and training
- Day stay unit
Hospice South Auckland is a registered charity (CC21683). The District Health Board provides approximately 70% of our total operating costs. The remaining $2.68 million plus each year, is raised through donations, hospice shop income and fundraising.
24 Hour Service
We are available 24 hours, 7 days a week.
Phone 09 640 0025 and a registered nurse will be available to take your call.
Totara Lodge
Totara Lodge is a 9 bed unit, providing inpatient medical and nursing care.
Admission may be for symptom control, short term respite care, or terminal care when this is no longer possible at home.
We provide the highest possible degree of comfort, peace and dignity.
