Caring for our community

What we do

Hospice is more than just a building; it is a philosophy of care.

Albany Community Hospice is an 8 bed palliative care facility where patients can receive support and symptom management in a home-like environment. Our facility is a private hospital and not part of the public health system.

All patients of the Hospice receive a private room with ensuite and access to the hospice gardens.  Rooms are equipped with seating for loved-ones and friends and there is a full array of amenities available within the facility for carers and friends to ensure their time here is supported as much as possible.
