Palliative Care in Newmarket

When to choose palliative care

Palliative care is a branch of care that helps people who have been diagnosed with a terminal or progressive illness to live as comfortably and independently as possible with their condition. Palliative care isn’t always offered solely at the end of life – in fact, some people receive palliative care for years as they seek to experience the best possible quality of life after a terminal diagnosis.

Expert care tailored to your needs

At Helping Hands, we firmly believe that in order for a home care plan to be truly effective, it should be designed completely around the needs of the person receiving it. That’s why, from your very first phone call to our friendly team, we’ll make sure you or your loved one are at the heart of every decision that’s taken regarding your support.

Palliative care can involve a lot of personal and complex details, but we’ll leave no stone unturned in ensuring you get the right type and level of care for your condition and circumstances. Plus, with ongoing support from your carers and your local care experts in Newmarket, we can proactively monitor your care needs and promptly recommend appropriate changes to your plan so that you’re never left isolated or unsupported.

Qualified carers providing palliative care in Newmarket

We’re extremely proud of our wonderful Newmarket carers, who are passionate about providing genuinely meaningful and effective palliative care that allows every customer to live comfortably, gracefully and securely with a complex condition. All of our carers have been selectively recruited for their compassionate approach to their roles, and undergo rigorous background checks before joining our Newmarket team to ensure they’re the sort of person you’d be delighted to welcome into your home. Then, when they start with us, every new carer receives our industry-leading carer training, which is held over a four-day period and equips our carers to provide specialist support to those living with progressive and terminal conditions. This initial training is supplemented by regular refresher courses to ensure every carer’s knowledge and skillset are kept up to date.
