The Home Care Oldham end-of-life care is sought to provide end-of-life comfort, dignity, and caring services. We understand that this is a very emotional and delicate phase of time to the individuals, as well as the families. We just help to create a nice and decent environment where people can have time to stay at home, to be among their friends and loved ones, and be offered with the attentive and nurturing attention.
Each end-of-life care plan begins with an in-depth conversation. We give close attention to the wishes of the individual and family members so that care is founded on the personal values, preferences of comfort, cultural factors as well as emotional needs. We have no hurry-hurrah or clinical attitude. Instead, we are looking at soft support which is concerned with comfort, reassurance and calmness.
Our caregivers are delicate in provision of personal care services such as washing, changing clothes, repositioning services, continence services and provision of comfort. These are all done in a slow and respectful manner without offending dignity. Pain or suffering can fluctuate throughout the day and the caregivers are trained to recognize signs of distress and respond to it calmly and adjust care to it and report to the families or other health care professionals.
End-of-life care aims at assisting the employees emotionally. The individuals may be scared, anxious or even confused and family members may be emotionally drained and unsure. The caregivers offer non-verbal company, solace and listening. Sometimes support is feasible and at other times it is merely being present with a person, providing them with the much-required confidence of composure during periods of weakness.
Home Care Oldham works with medical practitioners such as GPs, district nurses and palliative care teams to ensure that care is within the medical guidance. The provided collaborative practice helps to control the symptoms and respect the will of the person. The caregivers can assist in the administration of prescribed medications and provide assistance in comfort measures as prescribed by the medical practitioners.
Families should also be assisted. Death is a very intimidating process even when the individual attending to the patient is doing it personally. Through our service, the family members can sit back when it comes to physical responsibilities, and they are also able to have quality time with the loved one. The caregivers also provide mild guidance to the families and assure them of what to expect and comfort them through the difficult moments.
The requirements of care may change rather rapidly during this stage of life. Our end-of-life care service is not static and we can serve them either more or less according to the necessity. We are always responsive and attentive either in the short or the long run.
At the Home Care Oldham, end-of-life care is caring, understanding, and respectful. We aim to make individuals seek comfort and to help them and bring comfort, advice, and calmness to families during one of the most challenging periods in their lives.
