Stationary Hospice
There are twelve beds in the stationary hospice ( located in Nysa,) at the moment, after the extension, paid for by the National Health Fund. Only the patients in the terminal state of cancer are taken care of there. The terminal state is a late and very difficult state of cancer. Terminus (Latin) means an end, border. At this state, one cannot even think about making patients recover but what can be done is to let them feel they are being freed from a lot of torments caused by the illness and to let them live with dignity for the rest of their weeks, days and hours. Our highly trained staff consists of 10 nurses, 3 doctors, a physiotherapist, psychologist and Roman Catholic priest (chaplain).

The hospice doctor makes a decision about placing a patient in the hospice based on the patients medical record stating the termination of the treatment sent by a GP or from a hospital.
