My fiancé was kindly offered a room at St Andrews Hospice Airdrie when his condition worsened in April 2024. Sadly he passed away on the 11 days after his admission. St Andrews Hospice offered so much help and support for me and our son. I have always supported the hospice for years, but you don’t fully understand how outstanding the kindness, services and the care of all the staff in every department, it’s very overwhelming and extremely comforting. Even tho our stay was very short at the hospice, the support I received with my fiancé and after his passing that continued.
I was offered the service of complementary therapies with a lovely woman Pauline, straight away I felt so welcomed and at ease. Pauline offered different therapies on each visit to help me relax ease maybe some anxiety, suggested reflexology that has worked amazingly and helped with my sleep.
Each visit with Pauline helped me greatly, I felt relaxed also talking away for the hour on life, or what ever happened over the last few weeks, I really got a lot out of the session, and so grateful this service was offered to me. Pauline is definitely a credit to St Andrews hospice, her warming gentle approach to helping you, even just a chat was something I looked forward to each session. Pauline managed to create an atmosphere like she was an old friend I’ve known for years, after each session this really benefited me.
I can’t thank St Andrews enough for offering me such wonderful services, and I can’t thank Pauline enough she really made a difference, such a lovely women.
"Outstanding kindness, services and care"
