Our care

Free to all

We offer a wide range of services, therapies and treatments to help patients, their carers and families. Our support is free of charge and we're available day and night to ensure that you have the right care, at the right time.

700sq miles

Our catchment covers an area of 700sq miles and a community of 550,000 people. We cover Bath & North East Somerset (BaNES), and parts of Wiltshire and Somerset.

For families and friends

When someone is ill, it’s not just the patient who is affected. Life can be turned upside down for the rest of the family and for friends and carers. That's why we're here for everyone - for as long as you need us.

Education

We're passionate about developing and delivering evidence based, robust training and education programmes to internal colleagues and external partners who are involved in supporting patients, families and friends at the end of life.

Covid Reflections - Share your thoughts

The past year has been difficult for everyone, but we know that it’s been especially challenging for the patients and families we care for at Dorothy House.

We want to recognise this by capturing the voices and experiences of everyone in the Dorothy House community (patients, their families, carers, staff and volunteers) to create a lasting legacy of this time.
