With thanks to the continued support of the National Lottery who have funded our Hospital to Home Project in the Lothians since our Pilot and now for a further three years, we are looking to recruit a part time Hospital to Home Worker.

Hospital to Home is an opt out service which supports families to transition from the hospital setting to being back in the community. 6-8 sessions are offered, to support and guide families in the very early days of their loss, enhancing existing community services to provide long term peer bereavement support.
