Compassionate end-of-life care in the comfort of your own home
Compassionate End-of-Life Care in the Comfort of Your Own Home
At Promedica24, we understand that facing the end of life is an emotional and deeply personal experience. Whether you’re arranging care for yourself or a loved one, we know that comfort, dignity, and reassurance are paramount. Our specialist end-of-life live-in care allows individuals to remain in their own homes, surrounded by familiarity and loved ones, while receiving the support they need.
What is End-of-Life Care?
End-of-life care is a type of support provided to individuals in the final stages of a terminal illness. The aim is to ensure the best possible quality of life, offering symptom management, personal care, emotional support, and companionship. Every individual has unique needs, which is why personalised care is so important during this time.
Choosing live-in care means that a dedicated, fully trained carer is present 24/7 to provide professional support. This allows individuals to receive compassionate care while staying in the place they feel most at ease—their home.
The Benefits of Home-Based End-of-Life Care
Many people express a strong preference to spend their final months and weeks at home rather than in a hospital or hospice. Home-based care ensures that they can stay in a familiar setting, surrounded by loved ones, while receiving the right level of support.
Some of the key benefits of live-in end-of-life care include:
- • Familiar surroundings – Being at home helps reduce anxiety and stress.
- • Emotional comfort – Staying close to family, pets, and treasured possessions brings reassurance.
- • One-to-one support – A dedicated carer ensures all needs are met promptly.
- • Personalised care – Support is tailored to individual preferences, wishes, and medical needs.
- • Continuity of care – Avoiding frequent hospital visits or changes in care staff.
How Our Live-in Carers Support You
Our experienced carers provide compassionate, round-the-clock assistance, ensuring that both practical and emotional needs are met.
Personal Care & Daily Support
We assist with all aspects of personal care, including washing, dressing, and maintaining personal hygiene, always ensuring dignity and respect. Our carers also help with mobility, positioning, and keeping the home environment safe and comfortable.
Medication & Symptom Management
Managing medication correctly is crucial in end-of-life care. Our carers ensure that prescriptions are taken on time and liaise with healthcare professionals when necessary. If additional medical support is required, we work closely with nurses and palliative care teams.
Companionship & Emotional Support
End-of-life care isn’t just about physical needs—it’s also about emotional wellbeing. Our carers offer companionship and reassurance, providing a listening ear and emotional support for both the individual and their family.
Nutritional Support
Eating well can become challenging in the later stages of life. Our carers prepare nutritious meals, ensuring dietary needs and preferences are met while making mealtimes as enjoyable as possible.
Respite for Families
Caring for a loved one at the end of their life can be emotionally and physically demanding. Our service provides respite, allowing family members to rest while knowing their loved one is in safe, caring hands.
