How Our End-of-Life Care Services Help Families in Carlisle and Surrounding Communities

The end-of-life process can be intense, complex, and stressful for any family. You may have several questions and concerns about what to expect during this process. Whether you are searching for useful details about resources and caregiving or just need a listening ear, Visiting Angels Carlisle is here to help you understand the end-of-life process.

If your loved one has a limited life expectancy, they are likely to require some of in-home care. Family members must often look after their loved ones during their final days. We understand that this task can be physically and emotionally overwhelming, so we are here to offer our assistance during this difficult time.

End-of-life care is one of the services we provide through the Life Care Navigation collection of in-home senior care services. We have realized that this aspect of care is often overlooked in caregiver training, which is why we have designed a program called Practical Care Tips for End-of-Life. It provides our care professionals with all the information they need to deliver compassionate and expert care during the end-of-life process.

While your loved one is nearing the end of their life, our caregivers will prioritize their comfort and wellbeing. On top of that, we will lend a hand when required and provide emotional support to ensure that family caregivers receive the rest they need.

Dedicated caregivers from Visiting Angels Carlisle can help with:

• Maintaining your loved one's personal hygiene, including helping them get dressed and bathe
• Providing your loved one with meaningful companionship
• Assisting with everyday tasks like cooking, laundry, light housekeeping, shopping and running errands
• And more

Visiting Angels Carlisle can provide short-term respite care and companionship services for an extended period.
