Alexander Devine Children's Hospice Service
Alexander Devine Children’s Hospice Service is a charity that provides specialist care and support to children with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions, and their families, across Berkshire and surrounding counties. The charity was founded by John and Fiona Devine in memory of their son Alexander who died from a rare brain tumour in 2006. Their experience led them to realise the need for a children’s hospice service in Berkshire.
Seeking to streamline their care management processes, Alexander Devine Children’s Hospice Service partnered with The Care Database to implement our comprehensive care management solution.
