When to choose palliative care
Palliative care focusses on promoting your wellbeing, both physically and emotionally, and by choosing Helping Hands to provide your home care, will be able to remain in the place that means the most to you. Traditionally, palliative care took place in hospital, a hospice, or care home, yet by remaining at home you can be around loved ones and precious pets for as long as possible.
Palliative Care services tailored to you
By tailoring your package of care around you and your individual needs, you will always be at the centre of your palliative care journey. It’s vital that you have a wider care team who are committed to your consistent care, and our carers will work seamlessly with the other people who are taking care of you. It’s important to think about how you want your palliative care to progress and talk about it with your loved ones if you want them to be involved. Our care experts will help you have those difficult conversations, if necessary, and we’ll make sure your support plan contains everything necessary to keep you as comfortable as possible at home.
