Mutare Island Hospice

life threatening illness and their families and a comprehensive bereavement service. In 2014, Island Hospice Service Zimbabwe, changed its name to Island Hospice and Healthcare to better communicate the expansion of its services within its holistic approach to palliative care developed over the last three decades. The organization has managed to build a network of partners and services that reach vulnerable groups in society which include displaced peoples, orphans and other vulnerable children, young care-givers, widows and widowers, senior citizens and marginalized communities. Our services have expanded to include not only direct palliative care and bereavement counselling but also community health care initiatives, capacity building and training for healthcare professionals.
