Palliative Care in Durham

As your loved one’s condition develops, you may find their care needs change or increase. In the final few weeks of life, care requirements can become increasingly complex and demanding. End of life care is a specialised type of palliative care that focuses on helping people to live with as much dignity and peacefulness as possible until the end comes, through managing physical symptoms and providing mental and emotional support for all involved. At Helping Hands, we understand how important it is that your loved one receives all the care and support that they require, so we work with our customers to tailor a package of care that is specifically suited to the particular needs and wishes of each individual. Being able to provide your loved one with end of life care in their home gives them the opportunity to spend their final months and weeks in a place they’re familiar with, surrounded by fond memories, familiar views, cherished possessions and people who love them.

We’ve been providing dedicated, compassionate home care to our customers since 1989, so when you choose Helping Hands as your care provider, you know we’ve got the know-how to meet your requirements and wishes. Our brilliant carers are given expert training that allows them to support you with just about everything, from manual handling to medication, and are passionate about ensuring you’re able to enjoy as much independence and normality as possible. Plus, for added peace of mind, we’re fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales which means we’re fully committed to extremely highly standards of care day in, day out.
