Marie Curie Hospice, Edinburgh

Welcome to the Edinburgh hospice

We help people with an illness they’re likely to die from, and the people close to them, receive specialist care and support – for free. This includes Alzheimer’s (and other forms of dementia), heart, liver or kidney and lung disease, motor neurone disease, Parkinson’s and advanced cancer. Whatever your illness, whoever you are, we’re with you to the end.

How does it work?

In-patient stay

If you need specialist round-the-clock care, you can stay in our hospice as an in-patient. That might be until your symptoms have been stabilised, or you might stay for your final days.

Outpatient care

You can visit our hospice to get regular, personalised care targeted to your needs – whether you’ve just been diagnosed, are approaching the end of life, or are close to someone who is.

Wellbeing support

From arts and crafts to accupuncture, we offer a wide range of activities in the hospice to help you live the best life possible, for as long as you can.

Home visit

You can arrange home visits to get the same expert care as you would in a hospice, without leaving the house. Our specialist team will assess your needs, give support and help you plan for the future.

“

Everyone from receptionists to the cleaners, the healthcare staff, the nurses, the doctors, just all had this magical way of making you feel really at ease, which is bizarre when you think about the place that you're in. It was such a nice, calm environment.

Seeing Matt just being able to press a buzzer and have a nurse come through and give him something there and then was invaluable. Having that instant care was incredible.

Hayley, whose husband Matt was cared for in the Marie Curie Hospice, Edinburgh before he died
