Home Care Stockport end-of life care is committed to providing comfort, dignity and emotional support to one of the most sensitive and intimate phases of life. Considering that a person is almost on death, the majority of them would desire to be at home where they are comfortable with the surroundings and the people they love. Such desire will be enabled in our service where comfort and respect are given priority in the first place.
We begin with the listening to the person and his family. By understanding personal needs, habits, and values, we can be able to build care that will be meaningful and reassuring. Some of them like their quiet and serene environment, and some feel at ease talking, listening to the music, or in the presence of their extended families. These preferences lead us and make the individual feel in a comfortable environment in which he or she feels supported.
Our personal care is sensitive and is provided by our care givers, including washing, dressing, continence care, repositioning and keeping us comfortable during the day or night. These actions are made step by step and respectfully and the fact that the person may be a physical weakling or in some state of discomfort is taken into consideration. Dignity and privacy are never overlooked and the carers would make sure that they are informed on every procedure to avoid distress.
The palliative care is based on comfort management. The caregivers help in the hydration, temperature regulation and pain-management practice as prescribed by the medical practitioners. They observe respiration, mobility/ alertness and report it. Home Care Stockport works with, district nurses, palliative care teams, and other medical personnel in ensuring that care is consistent with medical advice and their preferences.
One also needs emotional support. Patients who are near the end of life may be frightened, muddled, philosophical or emotionally weak. Our caregivers offer peaceful company, comfort and company at all times. Perhaps, just being present, or even a show of encouragement or even just a moment of silence can contribute to establishing some form of a peace even in a stressful situation.
This process is also supported to families on the long-term basis. The care of a loved one might be emotionally and physically stressful especially at the end of life. We have our caregivers who help us back this burden with good care, effective communication and kind instructions. This will empower the family members to have good time together as compared to taking care responsibilities alone.
We also assist to provide a safe and comfortable home situation, to make minor adjustments to assist with rest, access and dignity. These are considerations that come in handy in creating a conducive and relaxing environment to all parties involved.
End-of-life care at Home Care Stockport is delivered in a caring, patient and respectful atmosphere. We are committed to treating people and families with a sensitive and understanding approach in such that the end of life is addressed with comfort, understanding and dignity and all these in the comfort of home.
