The end of your life, the way you choose

Everyone deserves to live the last months, weeks and days of their lives the way they choose. At PillarCare our experienced management and care team have helped many people to have a peaceful end to their life in their own home.

Why end of life care at home?

Many people don’t know that they can stay in their own homes, regardless of their healthcare needs, for the rest of their lives.

Choosing end-of-life care at home is a deeply personal decision, and it’s understandable to want comfort and familiarity during such a challenging time.

Being at home allows for a sense of peace and control, surrounded by cherished memories and loved ones. It offers a more intimate setting, free from the clinical atmosphere of a hospital, where one can receive care in a familiar environment.

While it’s not without its challenges, the ability to stay in a place filled with warmth and the presence of family can bring a sense of solace and dignity during this final phase of life. It’s a choice made out of love and a desire for a peaceful, personal conclusion to life’s journey.

This is where our end of life care packages can help.

Obligation-free assessment from our care professionals

Your local team of care managers are on call 24/7 to answer your questions and work with you to design a customised plan of care that is right for you.

Unique care

Everyone’s end of life journey is totally unique. Sometimes this comes after a long illness, sometimes after a very recent diagnosis. For our end of life care packages, we work closely with the individual and their loved ones to ensure that the last months, weeks or days of someone’s life are comfortable, dignified and supported.

Changing your lifestyle and having a new person in your home is a big transition. Our experienced care management team and friendly carers do all we can to make this transition a pleasant and positive experience.

Our End of Life Care Packages

Our end of life care packages can involve the provision of day care, night care, live-in care and sometimes a combination of all these options. Often the last few days of somebody’s life require comprehensive 24-hour care. As with all our care packages, our end of life care is led and managed in every detail by our specialist care management team. We work with the service user and, where relevant, their family/loved ones to ensure that their wishes are followed and met right up to the end, and our care management team are here to support families/loved ones after this time.

Our end-of-life care packages designed for home settings offer crucial benefits. They provide comfort in a familiar environment, surrounded by loved ones. These packages ensure personalised medical attention, pain management, and symptom relief, maintaining the patient's comfort. Being at home fosters intimate connections, meaningful moments, and the creation of lasting memories. Additionally, it eases logistical challenges and stress associated with hospital visits, prioritising the patient's comfort and emotional well-being.
