Palliative Care in Southampton

The final few weeks of a loved one’s life are often a distressing time for everyone concerned. End-of-life care is designed to provide emotional and physical support for people living with terminal illnesses and their loved ones as the end nears. At Helping Hands, the main objective of our end-of-life care is to give your loved one the best quality of life possible in their final days whilst managing the symptoms of their condition and allowing them to stay at home, comfortable and dignified.

We adopt a compassionate, holistic approach to end-of-life care, because we want to make sure your loved one’s needs are all being looked after and that the whole family feels fully supported. It may be that your loved one requires live-in care to provide round-the-clock support; we’re able to provide a specially trained and carefully chosen carer to live with your loved one, assisting them with their day-to-day needs and closely monitoring their condition to ensure they’re receiving all the help they need. Or, if preferred, we also offer care visits at allocated time slots throughout the day. Whatever you or your loved one needs, our end-of-life care service is fully flexible around your wishes and requirements.

We think the world of our Southampton care team – they truly are exceptional, and they’ll always go above and beyond to ensure our customers are receiving the very best care. All of our care staff have been recruited specifically for their compassionate, empathetic personalities because we believe those traits are absolutely essential in a carer. We also perform thorough background checks before anyone joins Helping Hands because we want to be absolutely certain that they’re going to be the sort of person you’d want in your home.

When they start with us, all carers are enrolled in our award-winning training programme, and they’ll continue to participate in refresher courses so that they’re always up to date with the latest care industry standards and best practices. And, for your added peace of mind, the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales provide independent regulation of all of our care provisions, so you know we’re fully committed to achieving exceptionally high standards of care each and every day.
