Homecare focused on managing the physical and emotional symptoms
If you or a loved one are nearing end of life or are diagnosed with a life-limiting illness, you may think that you have to move away from home, but that is not necessarily the case. Receiving palliative care at home allows you to stay in the place where they feel most comfortable and safe, surrounded by memories created over the years and the people you love.

What are the benefits of Palliative Care?
FAQs
For more information about palliative care take a look at some of the frequently asked questions below.
Palliative care is specialised medical care for people with serious illnesses. It is focused on providing relief from the symptoms and stress of the illness, whatever the diagnosis. The goal is to improve quality of life for both the patient and the family by providing pain management, support, and comprehensive care coordination.
Palliative care is appropriate for patients at any stage of a serious illness, whether that illness is curable, chronic, or life-threatening. It is beneficial for those experiencing significant pain, physical discomfort, or emotional distress due to conditions such as cancer, heart disease, lung disease, kidney disease, Alzheimer's, ALS, and many others.
Palliative care can be provided at any stage of an illness, not just the end stages, and can be received alongside curative treatments. Hospice care, on the other hand, is specifically for those who are nearing the end of life, typically when curative treatments are no longer being pursued and life expectancy is six months or less.
