What is End of Life Care?

End of life care is caring for someone during the later stages of a life-limiting illness such as cancer, motor neurone disease or dementia. At the earlier stages of diagnosis, you may have a developed an end of life care plan to ensure your loved one’s wishes are met and they can live as comfortably as possible in their final days.

End of life care includes looking after their physical and emotional wellbeing and ensuring they are treated with compassion and respect such as being kept clean, comfortable, safe and cared for with their pain managed.

End of Life Care At Home

Many people prefer end of life care at home, surrounded by family in a familiar setting. We provide compassionate support with daily tasks like washing, dressing and eating to ensure comfort and dignity.

Whether you need a live-in carer or daily visits, our service allows you to focus on spending meaningful time with your loved one while we take care of their needs.

End of Life Care Plan

When you hire a carer from Live In Solutions, we will discuss the patient’s end of life care plan with you and ensure we are aware of their wishes. We are there to provide physical and emotional care and ensure the end of life palliative care is in line with their personal and spiritual beliefs and that they are at their most comfortable for their final weeks, months or years.

Our carers are trained with providing end of life care and will treat your loved one with the care and dignity they deserve. We aim to match our carers and patients as suitably as possible, because this professional relationship is an important one for both parties and they should feel comfortable with the person they are receiving care from.

It is understandable that many people want to live their final days in a familiar environment and within their own home, however this can be physically and emotionally demanding on family members, we feel that this valuable time should be for you to be able to talk and reminisce. Our end of life care means you can focus on them while we ensure their needs are met.

A Care Plan That Works For You

We can work with you to discuss a care plan that suits everyone, providing as much or as little care as you need. Our carers can assist with a range of daily tasks such as washing, dressing, eating, cleaning and cooking.
