Palliative and end of life care at home
For many people, being cared for at home, surrounded by family and familiar things, is what matters most at the end of life. Our end of life care service makes that possible, providing calm, compassionate support that respects your wishes and protects your dignity.
Our support can begin at any point, from the diagnosis of a life-limiting illness through treatment, the last days of life and into bereavement. End of life care is one of the specialist areas of our nurse-led executive team.
A personalised end of life care plan
We will agree a personalised end of life care plan with you that reflects your needs and preferences, offers real choice and ensures your dignity in the last stages of life. That might include where you would like to be cared for, who you want with you, and the small comforts that are important to you.
Working with your GP, district nurses and hospice team
We work closely with your GP, district nurses, specialist palliative care nurses and local hospice services to make sure your wishes and needs are met. Our carers help keep you comfortable, monitor for changes and escalate any concerns quickly, so symptoms can be managed well.
Supporting the people who love you
We care for families too. Our team can sit with your loved one so you can rest, help you understand what to expect, and be a steady presence during a very difficult time. Where needed, we can provide overnight care so that someone is always there.
