Help create a cosy and comforting environment at Argdgowan Hospice for our patients and their families through replacing patient chairs within our in-patient unit and refurbishing the family room where loved ones can stay to be near loved ones in their final days.

Situation
Hospices can initially be scary places for patients and their families. Here at Ardgowan, we want to do everything we can to make them homely and welcoming spaces. Our existing patient chairs are worn-out and uncomfortable which may discourage patients from getting out of bed and moving more. Our family room is currently a cold characterless space, lacking storage with a basic slide out chair which is not the most comfortable to sleep on and does not provide the solace families members need.
Solution
We want to provide pressure relieving rise recliner chairs that are easy to move, cleanable and offer comfort and relief to patients. Within the family room we want to install a built-in murphy bed with storage and seating which we will redecorate, update the kitchen and accessories to create a welcoming and soothing homely atmosphere where families can find support, solace, connection and privacy when they need it most.
