The hospice of St. John N. Neumann, o.p.s., according to the requirements of the lay and professional public, identified the need for a domestic hospice in Prachatice and Vimpersk. On this basis, the established Domestic hospice in Prachatice aims to provide the field hospice palliative care for the incurably ill in their natural home environment. This project is intended to support informal carers and families of patients during the period of care, death and grieving and provide support services for them to advise, educate and lend aids.
