Palliative care in Stroud
What palliative care services are available in Stroud?
At Helping Hands, we understand how distressing it is when a life-limiting illness is affecting one of your loved ones, and our friendly and professional Stroud care team can offer a range of services on a visiting or live-in basis that can make their, and your day-to-day life that little bit easier. Palliative care at home means that you remain in the place you love and know best, your own home, and receive treatments and care in comfortable and familiar surroundings. Your wider community healthcare team will be able to come to you and provide therapies and treatments without you needing to relocate to a care home or residential premises and we even have our own team of clinical nurses who will be able to supervise and deliver nursing care, if needed. If you are happiest in your own home then why would you leave it, when you can have the same high levels of care from dedicated and compassionate carers without leaving.

End of life care options in Stroud
End-of-life care provides the support that is needed during the last few weeks or day of life, allowing them to pass in as dignified, pain-free and comfortable way as possible. Being in their own home for the end of life care has become the preferable alternative to hospital or hospice care for many people, as it allows you to have all of your loved ones and precious pets there with you until the final moments. Perhaps you’d like to hear your grandchildren playing in the garden you planted, or the smell of the roses by your window, which is why so many people now come to Helping Hands for their palliative and end of life care at home. Whether you are looking for full-time live-in care or regular visits from the Stroud care team, Helping Hands provide a full range of services for people approaching the end of life, such as personal care, pain management, and emotional and holistic support for both you and your loved ones.
