The doors to Dr Kershaw s new in-patient unit have finally opened, following a five-month Covid delay.
The new unit will offer modern facilities for patients in the local community.
With over 30 years history of caring for patients in Oldham, Dr Kershaw’s Hospice has transformed itself from the 1930s Cottage Hospital building it once was, to a modern facility offering patients a 21st century home from home in their newly launched £3.5 million In-Patient Unit.
Despite unprecedented Covid-delays and a financial shortfall to the project, which pushed back the opening by five months, the Hospice’s new In-Patient Unit which has the capacity to care for 12 patients, proudly opened its doors to the first patient on 15th February.
