What Is Palliative Care?

At some point, it becomes clear that people are not immortal or invincible, and despite the efforts of doctors and medical professionals and the prayers of friends and family, they will not be around for much longer.

Palliative care, also called end of life or comfort care, is a type of health care for patients and their families when facing life threatening illnesses. Palliative care's focus is on maximizing the patient's quality of life and providing comfort during this difficult time. Palliative care is concerned with treating both the physical symptoms that patients may experience as well as their emotional and spiritual concerns. The care also entails many regular caregiving duties, which will ease the burden on you and your loved one while providing experienced caregiving services.

Why Choose Palliative Care?

End of life decisions are always difficult for seniors as well as their families. Palliative care seeks to provide comfort and dignity at this time, allowing seniors to continue aging with dignity and comfort in their own homes. Many seniors find that living at their long term residence during this difficult time adds comfort and increases their quality of life compared to aging in a home or medical center. Discuss your loved one's preferences with them to see what care system can fulfill their wishes. Our caregivers are also available to live with your loved one in The Greater Ottawa Area for around the clock care. You can read more on live in caregivers here.
