The Southend on Sea Palliative Care team, here to help every step of the way
It is a distressing time for families when a loved one requires palliative care at home. We can
relieve some of the pressure by being cared for by our warm and compassionate team. Our approach is centred on offering comfort, and we work closely with healthcare professionals to ensure that care is coordinated and effective. We believe there is no better place to receive end-of-life care than in the comfort of one’s own home. Familiar surroundings provide a sense of peace and security, allowing individuals to maintain their quality of life during this important time.

Carers from Home Instead were crucial to my recovery after my left hip replacement operation. Recuperative care was excellent. Team attendance was ready to help with any tasks, and the care manager was knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole process.

Palliative care is an option that your clinical team may suggest if you or a loved one have received a diagnosis of a serious or terminal illness, such as cancer, lung disease or Alzheimer’s. Our Care Professionals can provide support that will alleviate discomfort and stress and allow a better quality of life.
Palliative care can be started at any stage of a serious illness, though it can be recommended to start as early as possible depending on the diagnosis and the treatment required. After finding out what treatments are required you can be easily make an informed decision on when palliative care is needed.
Not necessarily. While palliative care can include end of life care, it is certainly not always the case and can last for a longer period of time. Some people are able to live comfortably for many years while receiving palliative care. The focus is always providing support as you need it to allow you to carry on with your daily life within the limits of your condition.
Our Care Professionals understand that maintaining your control over your daily life is important. Depending on what care you need for your condition you may need help with a few things or more help with a lot of your usual tasks. The level of help required is likely to change over time, but Home Instead will be there to ensure you keep as your independence for as long as possible.
During your illness you may receive successful treatment from your clinical team. Depending on the outcome of this treatment you may no longer require palliative care, however it may be beneficial to continue for a short while. During the recovery process it can be beneficial to you and your loved ones to have some relief from the physical and emotional stress a serious illness can cause.
