ACCORD

ACCORD Hospice is an independent charity giving free medical and nursing care to those in Renfrewshire and parts of East Renfrewshire whose illness is causing physical pain and emotional stress and for whom curative treatment may no longer be appropriate.

ACCORD opened its doors in 1992 to offer specialist palliative care services through provision of 8 In Patient beds, enhancing the existing Day Hospice facilities and Specialist Nurse led Community service. Our aim is to offer pain and symptom control, emotional, psychological and spiritual support, delivered by a team of specialist health care professionals. We respond to the needs of our patients and their families.

Services are provided free of charge. The Health Board contribute to the running costs, with the remainder of the monies required raised by our own fundraising team and voluntary donations.

Referrals to all services provided by ACCORD are accepted through the patient's own Doctor, or either the General Practitioner or Hospital Consultant
