Palliative Careat home

When somebody is ill, conditions can change drastically. The need to arrange palliative care can be very urgent and can come as a surprise, this can cause a great deal of pain and distress.

We offer emergency home care for a variety of circumstances and we can arrange care within 24 hours of you getting in touch.

We all understand how distressing it can be to see a loved one being affected by a terminal illness. That is where we can help, providing specialist day-to-day support so that you and your loved one can make the most of your time together.

Palliative care at home enables you to stay in the home that you feel comfortable in, surrounded by precious memories, priceless possessions, and the people that are dearest to you. With one-to-one support from one of our specialised compassionate carers, who is experienced in palliative care, you can have the support that you need, when you need it.

Whether you are looking for a full-time live-in carer or a visiting carer for those times when you or your loved one are in need of some extra support, we provide the full range of care services for palliative care.

With local branches and fully trained carers all over England, we are able to provide palliative care at the last minute.

Options for Palliative Home Care

There are many options for palliative care in the home. Here at Dove Home Care, we offer a range of home care packages which will be tailored to you or your loved ones’ every need.

Unlike introductory agencies, your local care manager will be there in case you have any changes or concerns. This fully managed service gives you the extra reassurance, so if anything changes or if you need more or less care, we can easily change it, to suit your needs.

Live In Care

A specially trained live-in carer will provide you with the 24/7 care and support that you need. Your fully trained carer will be specifically trained in order to fit your needs and carefully selected, based on your personality and care needs. Your carer will live with you and support you with your day-to-day living. Your carer will focus on promoting your independence and helping you to do the things that you are unable to do alone, he or she will also become a great friend or companion.

Regular Home Visits

If you or your loved one would prefer support visits at specific times of the day or overnight, your local Dove Home-care branch will support you with this. Your carer could visit you for as little as half an hour each week to as much as several times a day or overnight care depending on the level of support that you need. An expertly trained carer can enable you to retain your independence in your own home.

Respite Care

If your usual carer needs to take a break, we can offer you respite live in care from as little as three days. If you have been let down by your carer or they have been taken ill, that is where we can help by providing you with emergency care.
