Palliative Single Point of Access (pSPA) single number 24/7

Palliative 'Single Point of Access’ known as pSPA is part of a wider single point of access service, providing support for people across Lincolnshire via a one telephone number.

This number is: 0300 123 4868 & then press 9.

This means an easier and simplified telephone access for urgent nursing, care, advice and support, for both patients and their families or carers by having a single number 24/7, where you will have access to trusted clinical assessors.

Patients who have been recognised as Palliative and/or nearing End of Life should be added to Palliative register by their GP or specialist Palliative Care Team as part of the Gold Standards Framework (GSF), and be provided with a pSPA 'Green Card'. This gives them access to the palliative Single Point of Access (pSPA) through the telephone number.
