St Giles Hospice Quality Account 2017/2018 St Giles Hospice 2017-18 Quality Account | Page 5

This year has also seen our medical team exploring the use of virtual reality to help people living with incurable illnesses to manage their pain. The team have created an app narrated by Sir David Attenborough, which is already being used within the hospice and will soon be available on an international platform. St Giles Hospice’s Quality Account aims to provide patients, families, supporters, the general public, healthcare organisations and commissioners with information relating to the quality of services that we provide. This Quality Account describes our future goals as well as reviewing 2017/2018. I am very proud of the team at St Giles and all that our staff, volunteers and supporters achieve for our patients.
