Otago Community Hospice provides community-based specialist palliative care and support to people who are dying where their needs are beyond the level able to be provided by primary palliative care providers alone (such as a GP or District Nurse).

All of our services are provided free of charge. We support our patients where ever they want to be, and for most of them, that’s at home. We aim to keep people in their environment, symptom-free, for as long as possible. Otago Community Hospice is a teaching facility with strong relationships with the University of Otago and Otago Polytechnic.
