End of Life Care

End of life care refers to the care and services provided to an individual during their expected final months of life. For some, the care may last six months or more. For others, the care may be much shorter. Regardless of the time involved, a senior requiring end of life care deserves dignity, respect, and understanding.

Why Utilize End of Life Care?

End of life care can be arranged in a number of different settings. Many seniors receive care in a hospital, assisted living home, or nursing facility. Most seniors desire to spend as much time in the comfort of their own home as they can. End of life caregivers work with the senior, their family, and a large number of agencies to ensure care and support are provided when and where your senior loved one needs them.

Palliative care is a specialized set of services designed to bring comfort and relieve suffering for a senior and their family members. A person does not need to be terminal to receive palliative care, but palliative care is a large and essential component of end of life care. In addition to pain management, a palliative care team strives to maximize communication issues while addressing emotional, spiritual, mental, and physical issues.

When end of life care is provided in the senior’s home, there are often extra considerations. Seniors want to look and feel their best, and they want their home to look its best as well. After all, they may be receiving some of their visitors for the final time. End of life care provides a number of non-medical supports to support the senior and their family during this difficult time. In addition to providing for the senior’s personal care (toileting, bathing, grooming, dressing, and so forth), caregivers can also take care of light housekeeping, laundry, meal preparation, running errands, etc.

In addition to the obvious benefits of keeping a senior looking and feeling their best, caregivers overseeing the daily living tasks of the household decrease stress, anxiety, and worry. This improves a senior’s peace of mind. It also gives the family an opportunity to spend valuable time with their loved on instead of taking care of the chores.

After your loved one passes, end of life caregivers often help family members with the emotional challenge of sorting, organizing, and moving the senior’s effects. They can also help with the necessary cleaning and tidying of the residence. As with all other care, the focus is on dignity, respect, and understanding.

    Testimonials

    Rebecca

    Thank you for sending Tina into my mother’s home. Tina was like a ray of sunshine entering a window that had been closed off for a very long time. Tina was extremely attentitive and caring while handling very demanding and challenging daily tasks. Her friendship and care for my mother during her final days was touching. Feel free to add me to your referral list.

    Joanne

    Thanks so much for helping us find the right care solution for my Mother. She loves living at the assisted living community and has made a couple of friends already. Your assistance and knowledge were greatly appreciated and it took a lot of stress off of our shoulders during a very difficult period for our family.

    Susan

    We wanted to thank you for sending a wonderful caregiver - Julie. She has been such a needed help to our father during his last year of life. Julie was always on time and always happy to do what was required to care for our beloved father when he needed it most. Thank you so much for all your support and help.

    Joan

    I wanted to thank you for all your great help and assistance this past 3 months during our mother’s surgery and recovery. She speaks so highly of the caregiver (Annette). Thank you for helping my Mom get back on her feet again. She looks great! All the best.

    Angela

    Thank you so much for your outstanding homecare services and support. The caregivers working with my Dad at home are always on time and very professional. Your attention to the daily details of our situation and quick response time to resolve issues as they have arisen has been outstanding. You have no idea how much stress you have relieved in our ayour service and continued support. I would recommend you to anyone.

    Stephanie

    Thank you for helping us find the right board and care facility for my Dad. He really likes the place and we can tell that he is starting to move out of his depression little by little. I can’t thank you enough for driving us around and helping us find the right place for him - I don’t know how we would have done it without you.
