End-of-Life Care/Palliative Care

A Dignified Final Journey In Home Surroundings

What is End-of-Life/ Palliative Care?

End-of-life care offers comprehensive support for individuals in the final phase of their life. It is a specialised form of palliative care, specifically dedicated to the last weeks and days of an individual’s life. The primary focus is on ensuring comfort and dignity, facilitating a peaceful transition. While some choose hospitals, hospices, or nursing homes for their final days, there’s a growing preference for end-of-life care at home. This option allows individuals to spend their remaining time in the familiar surroundings of their home, surrounded by loved ones.

Many end of life patients prefer to live their last days at home, in familiar surroundings, with their family and loved ones by their side. Connected Health offers essential domiciliary support and palliative care to help you and your family make this decision.
