Coming to terms with a life-limiting condition can be difficult, not just for the individual but for their family too. Embarking along the palliative care pathway may lead some people to think they are soon going to be passing away, however this isn’t necessarily the case as the palliative care can last for years before a person reaches the end of their life. It means that the medical team can give appropriate treatments and therapies, and while not a cure, the treatments will be focussed on allowing the individual to live as good quality as life for as long as possible. Our friendly and compassionate carers from the Hull team can provide you with the highest levels of support, regardless of the condition you’re living with, and because at Helping Hands we’ve been supporting people with their palliative care for over 30 years, you can be assured that we will always provide the highest quality care at home, regardless of whether you choose to have care on a visiting or live-in basis.
When you’re approaching the last few weeks or days of life it’s important to know that your whole range of needs are being supported in a whole-person, holistic manner. Your loved ones will also need expert support at such a difficult and distressing time, and our amazing Hull home care team will be able to ensure that their needs are focussed on, as well as yours. Spending your palliative care journey and the end of your life at home, means you get to be in the place that means the most to you, surrounded by as many family and friends as you wish, along with beloved pets too. Being at home means you and your loved ones are not subject to rules regarding what time people can visit and how many at a time, you all get to ensure your dignified passing in a peaceful and calm manner.
Whether you choose palliative care from the Hull team on a visiting or live-in basis, we will design a bespoke package of care with you that ensures you get to live your days exactly as you want to, in conjunction with the people who love you and the wider community healthcare team. Being in familiar and comforting surroundings to receive your care will make such a difference to your emotional health as well as your physical, especially if you have a favourite view from a window, like to sit in your garden or have precious pets at your feet. Because our services are fully managed and we’re regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales, you can have full confidence in us to always deliver the highest quality home care.
