In Home Palliative Care

Experience compassionate relief from symptoms and stress, enhancing the quality of life for patients and families.

Palliative care involves the management of the symptoms and stress related to a terminal disease and how that affects not only the patient but also his or her family. Such care is also suitable in the early, middle or end of an illness and can be offered, along with ‘therapeutic’ care.

We also offer interventions such as pain and symptom relief, counselling and spiritual care, and are useful in decisions concerning the course of treatment to be taken. Our care team is involved in the process of caring for end-of-life patients alongside patients and families so that patient’s preferences, values and beliefs are respected.

Our In Home Palliative Care includes:

Holistic Support: Addressing the holistic needs of the patient, including psychological, social, and spiritual support, to enhance overall well-being.

Advance Care Planning: Facilitating discussions about the patient’s goals, preferences, and wishes for end-of-life care and decision-making.

Symptom Management: Managing symptoms such as fatigue, constipation, anxiety, and depression through a combination of medications, therapies, and non-pharmacological interventions.

Mobility Assistance: Helping patients maintain mobility and independence through exercises, mobility aids, and assistance with transferring and positioning.

Comfort Care: Providing comfort measures such as massage, soothing music, aromatherapy, and temperature control to promote relaxation and comfort.

24/7 Availability: Ensuring round-the-clock availability of healthcare professionals and support staff to address urgent needs and provide reassurance to patients and families.

Medical Equipment and Supplies: Coordinating the delivery and management of medical equipment, supplies, and medications needed for symptom management and comfort.

Coordination with Hospice Services: Collaborating with hospice providers to ensure seamless transitions and continuity of care as the patient’s needs evolve.

Pain and Symptom Management: Expert management of pain, nausea, shortness of breath, and other symptoms to improve comfort and well-being.

At Friendly Caring, We believe that our palliative care offers compassionate support and expert management of pain and symptoms for individuals with serious illnesses, ensuring comfort and dignity in familiar surroundings.
