Annmarie Hosie is a Palliative Care Specialist based in Ultimo, NSW. You can find her consulting at Level 3, 235-253 Jones St, Ultimo, NSW 2007, Australia. Her work is all about comfort and care, especially when someone is dealing with a serious illness and needs extra support to get through each day.
Palliative care isn’t just one thing. It can include helping manage pain, settling symptoms, and supporting families as the situation changes. Annmarie looks after people facing tough conditions such as delirium, acute pain, and dementia. At times, her care also covers situations linked with alcohol withdrawal (including delirium tremens), and serious respiratory illness, where breathing and comfort both matter.
In many cases, symptoms can shift quickly. Delirium can come on suddenly, and it can be upsetting for both the person and their family. Annmarie focuses on calm, practical care to reduce distress, improve comfort, and help people stay as clear and settled as possible. When pain is hard to control, she also works on adjusting care so the person can rest, eat better where they can, and feel more at ease.
She also supports patients and teams during outbreaks and serious infections. Her service includes care linked with COVID-19 and other severe respiratory syndromes, like SARS. That means thinking about the whole picture, not only the main illness, but also the added strain on breathing, energy, and day-to-day comfort.
Over time, palliative care teams learn that the small things count. It might be making sure the right comfort measures are in place, explaining what is happening in plain language, or helping carers know what to watch for. Annmarie’s approach stays grounded and focused on what helps most in that moment.
