Demelza Kent
Demelza Kent is a 10-bedded hospice providing a large range of hospice and care services to children, young people and their families.
Life-limited or life threatened children or young people and their families benefit from a wide range of facilities that include a Multi-Sensory room, Soft Play, Jacuzzi, and The Inclusion Zone (TIZ) for young people.
The Care Team is led by Children's Palliative Care Nurses and consists of Children's Palliative Care Assistants, Family Support Workers and other Ancillary Support Staff.
One of their aims is to make the most of every moment that the child or young person spends at Demelza. Parents have described having the opportunity of an undisturbed night's sleep as pure luxury.
At the end of the child or young person's illness, Demelza offer a comprehensive service of support using a Bereavement Suite - known as the Hop Garden.

Famous quotes containing the word kent:
“Main Street was never the same. I read Gide and tried to
translate Proust. Now nothing is real except French wine.
For absurdity is reality, my loneliness unreal, my mind tired.
And I shall die an old Parisian.”
—Conrad Kent Rivers (1933–1968)
