What Is End of Life Care and Who Is It For?
End of life care is specialist support for individuals who are in the final months, weeks, or days of life. This care focuses on managing pain, easing discomfort, and supporting emotional wellbeing while respecting the person’s choices and dignity.
It is suitable for those with terminal illnesses, progressive conditions, or age-related decline, and can be provided alongside NHS or hospice services.
Our team works alongside healthcare professionals, GPs, and palliative care teams to ensure holistic support throughout.

Our end of life care includes:
-
Personal care: gentle washing, dressing, toileting, and continence support

Pain management assistance: working alongside district nurses and GPs
