BUTTERFLY SERVICE

The Butterfly Service is part of the End-of-Life Care Together Services that are
provided across mid-Nottinghamshire.
End of life care is often associated with medical needs but non-clinical care plays an
important role in achieving the optimum quality of life for people facing terminal
illness.
The Butterfly Service compliments existing services and provides practical and
emotional support to patients and their families in their last year of life. This is
achieved by offering companionship to reduce social isolation, a safe space in the
form of friendship groups, help with transport to and from hospital appointments, and any other help and support patients and families may need.

Facing the end of life can be overwhelming but the Butterfly Service exists to provide help and information so that patients and their families feel supported and can spend meaningful time together in the time they have left.
