What Worcester Palliative Care Services are Available?

Palliative care is a dedicated branch of care that is reserved for people who are living with a serious or terminal illness, such as types of dementia or advanced cancer. Depending on the nature of a person’s condition and the rate at which it progresses, palliative care can sometimes last for years. The main aim of palliative care is to ensure the individual is fully supported to enjoy the best possible quality of life in the time that they have left.

End of Life Care in Worcester

End of life care is similar to palliative care in the sense that it is reserved for people living with a terminal illness, but – unlike palliative care – it is specifically designed for the final few months and weeks of a person’s life. Your loved one might require end-of-life care when their condition starts to progress rapidly, or when they’re no longer able to perform basic bodily functions, such as eating, drinking and toileting, without professional assistance.

End-of-life care aims to ease pain levels, manage chronic symptoms and provide your loved one with the dignity and comfort they deserve. Helping Hands provide specialise end-of-life care to people who wish to remain at home for the final stages of life.

Staying at home for end-of-life care, rather than moving to a residential nursing home or an end-of-life hospice, can provide a sense of reassurance and emotional support. Small things, such as familiar furniture, a much-loved view or family heirlooms, can be extremely comforting and play a big role in helping create a sense of peacefulness during what can be a very distressing period.

Having end-of-life care at home also gives you a lot more control over things like meal choices, visiting hours and bed times.
