Palliative Care in Dartford

End of life care options in Dartford

End of life care differs slightly from palliative care in that it is only given to people who are in the last few months or weeks of life. The primary aim of end-of-life care is to ensure that the symptoms of a person’s condition are managed, so that pain levels are kept to a minimum and the final stages of life can be experienced with dignity and comfort. There’s also a lot of focus placed on providing a high level of emotional support to everyone concerned during what can be a distressing period of time.

If you have a loved one who requires end-of-life care in Dartford or the surrounding area, our brilliant team of carers are fully trained to provide a bespoke package of end-of-life care that will meet their specific needs and wishes whilst allowing them to remain in the home that they cherish, surrounded by the people who they love. Staying at home for end-of-life care provides a platform for your loved one to receive a greater level of mental, emotional and social support, as they’ll be able to continue enjoying much-loved views, treasured memories and familiar faces. Receiving care at home also allows for a lot more flexibility when it comes to designing a care plan – whether your loved one requires 24/7 support from a live-in carer, or visiting care at several points throughout the day, our brilliant Dartford care team will be able to design a support package that is suited to your requirements and that can be adapted as your loved one’s condition progresses.
