When a loved one reaches the stage where curative treatment is no longer possible, Home Care Assistance Newcastle can improve their end-of-life experience and help keep them in their familiar, home environment.
Companionship in the familiar environment of the home helps bring essential comfort and peace to an individual in this stage of life. Simply having someone there with your loved one around-the-clock, or on an as-needed basis, provides much needed comfort and compassion.
It’s common that one’s appetite will decrease, so it’s important to maintain the nutritional value of the food your loved one will consume. Our Carers are trained to prepare healthy meals based on the individuals needs and preferences.
Our highly skilled, and experienced, care workers prioritise delivering dignified care to all, including during the palliative experience. During this time we can help maintain hygiene and grooming, both for comfort and respect but also for to reduce risk of any painful infections or bed sores.
Our Care Management team are experienced in providing support and resources in regard to all aspects of the aged care process, and the palliative stages is no different. Sometimes we are an ear to listen over a cupppa, or a friendly face at the funeral, and in other situations we can even help senior partners/ children get in contact with My Aged Care themselves.
For a bit of guidance or immediate help, we’re here for Novocastrian seniors in search for quality aged care to support them in the next chapter of their lives.
