Spill's employee assistance programme (EAP) for hospices

Hospice work is some of the most meaningful in healthcare, and some of the heaviest. Your team sits with death and grief every day, supports families through the worst weeks of their lives, and can reach emotional saturation without anyone noticing. Spill gives hospice staff same-day therapy around shifts, with counsellors who specialise in grief and compassion fatigue, for £75 a month for the whole team.

Same day counselling sessions

Rolling 30 day contract

Unlimited access from £75 per month

Hospices

Proudly supporting hospice staff across the UK

Holding grief for others, every working day

57% of carers feel overwhelmed because they can't switch off from work. In a hospice, that's hardly surprising. The emotional weight of daily proximity to death and grief, and of holding families steady through it, doesn't stay in the building when the shift ends.

Compassion fatigue

60% of care staff have experienced burnout or emotional exhaustion.

Boundary challenges

57% of carers feel overwhelmed because they can't switch off from work.

Financial pressures

61% of carers worry about their finances and struggle to make ends meet.

Caring for the people who care at the end

Staff who can process grief with a specialist counsellor sustain this work for years rather than months. That continuity means calmer teams, steadier support for families and less of the quiet attrition hospices know too well.

Protect against compassion fatigue

Help staff process the emotional weight of caring for others before it turns into exhaustion.

Keep minds on the job

Supported staff have more attention and patience for the people who depend on them.

Reduce mental health sick days

Same-day support helps issues get dealt with early, before they become absence.
