Understanding End-of-Life Care

Also referred to as palliative care, end-of-life care provides physical and emotional support alongside medical care in the last weeks or months of life.

This will often involve:

  • Providing pain relief and managing other symptoms
  • Helping with everyday tasks, including personal care
  • Providing emotional support
  • Supporting and involving key family members and friends

Our priority at Allenbrook is ensuring each person in our care maintains their dignity, no matter their condition or stage of life. This is never more important than during end-of-life care, which is why we create bespoke care plans with each resident and their families.

Our Approach

Across all the care we provide, we take a person-centred approach, and this doesn’t stop when a resident starts to receive end-of-life care.

Each resident will be at the heart of any decisions about their care. We work closely with everyone involved to create a care plan that reflects the person’s individual needs and wishes.

Each of our team members is experienced and trained to care for loved ones at this important time.

This time is not only about the resident, but also about their family, so while our care plans are focused around the individual receiving the care, our staff have experience and training in helping family members at this emotional time.

Friends and family are able to visit without restriction, and, as part of our admission process, we agree a plan to ensure essential information and updates are shared with key family members.
