Professional And Compassionate Care To Help You Live Comfortably At Home

Palliative care, or end-of-life care, helps those suffering from a life-limiting illness to enjoy a good standard of living during the time they have left. Specialist carers assist with pain management, provide emotional support and offer practical aid with housework, shopping, cooking and personal care.

Your palliative carer will take a holistic approach to managing the physical and psychological symptoms of your condition. They will provide emotional support for you and your family, helping you to prepare for what is to come in the weeks and months ahead. Above all, they will provide the support and comfort that means so much at such a difficult time in anyone’s life.

You can receive palliative care at any point during your illness and alongside other treatments for as long as it is beneficial to you. Companions of London can connect you to the right palliative carer.

    Is Palliative Care Right for Me?

    Palliative care can be beneficial at many different points during a life-limiting illness, not just during the last few weeks or months of life. You can choose to begin palliative care earlier in your illness, for example, while you are still receiving other therapies to treat your condition. It is not necessary to go into a hospice in order to receive palliative care; specialist home carers can provide support in the familiar and comfortable surroundings of your own home.

    Also known as terminal or end-of-life care, palliative care focuses on ensuring that your loved one is as comfortable as possible by reducing the symptoms of their incurable illness and providing the support, understanding and friendship that is so crucial at this time.

    Some of the responsibilities of a specialist palliative carer include:

    • Assisting you with end-of-life planning by helping you to organise your finances and provision for the future
    • Ensuring that all steps are taken to minimise any discomfort or pain
    • Providing psychological, social and spiritual support to you and your family
    • Performing household tasks, such as vacuuming, dusting and washing clothes
    • Assisting you with meal preparation, eating, washing, getting into bed and dressing, should this be necessary
    • Coordinating your care with the appropriate healthcare professionals, including your GP and community nurses.
