What is Palliative Care?

Palliative care, also called end-of-life care, is a care service offered to those with a critical illness or health condition. These people are nearing the end of their life. This could be due to the natural deterioration that comes with old age. It may be because someone has a terminal illness or life-threatening health condition.

The main goal of palliative care is to make sure a person is comfortable. The facility reduces pain and symptoms. We ensure that we maintain a resident’s dignity and honour their wishes. Residents can spend time with their families whilst everyone receives caring support at a difficult time..
