Palliative care
Palliative care is designed for those with a life limiting illness to help relieve symptoms, manage pain and improve their quality of life.
It’s aimed to help you or your loved one live as well as possible.
Some of our care homes offer palliative care, where a dedicated team of nurses provide around-the-clock care in a calm and comfortable environment for every resident. We understand that illnesses affect everyone differently, so we’ll work with you to tailor your loved one’s palliative care to their individual needs.
Our goal is to improve the quality of life for both your loved one and their family, as it can be a difficult and emotional time when someone close to you is seriously ill. So our care homes offer support to help you cope during your loved one’s care.
Our palliative care focuses on:
- Helping our residents by managing the physical symptoms of their condition
- Improving quality of life for the resident and their family
- Providing around-the-clock care in a calm and comfortable environment
- Understanding and respecting your loved one’s wishes from the start
- Providing continuous support for the family
What to expect
If you choose for your loved one to receive palliative care within one of our care homes, we’ll develop a care plan which will make sure all their needs are met. It’s our goal to make sure your loved one has the best quality of life throughout their stay with us whilst providing those close to them with the support, advice or opportunity to talk, during such an emotional time.
