If you seek physical and emotional support for a loved one living with a terminal illness, End-of-life care can be beneficial. Caregivers offer clients their experience and skills while supporting the family unit through this challenging time. 

While death is natural and part of the life cycle process, it doesn't mean it's not difficult to go through. Many seniors are choosing to spend their final days surrounded by loved ones in their homes. This is why providing your loved one with compassionate and supportive End-of-life care and home care services is crucial.

Sadly, this aspect of End-of-life care is often misunderstood or overlooked when training caregivers and health care providers. Visiting Angels Northern Virginia provides different care options that help clients and their families during this transition. Our team of caregivers keeps clients safe and comfortable; our program does not include hospice care; however, we assist and work alongside a provided hospice team. We will also support you and your family, helping whenever needed.

End of Life Care in Leesburg, Reston, Sterling, VA, and the Surrounding Area

When your loved one is diagnosed with a limited life expectancy, they will more than likely require some form of specialized care to address pain and other symptoms. End-of-life home care is often the most common solution. Usually, responsibilities fall upon close family and friends-- if this is where you are, you should know that you don't have to handle it all alone.

Visiting Angels Northern Virginia offers compassionate services from skilled caregivers for your loved ones and those caring for them. We provide the dedicated level of support you need through our LifeCare Navigation™, our collection of senior care services. We have outlined our care approach in our Practical Care Tips for End of Life program. This was created to provide caregivers with the information needed to support and assist clients and their families.

Under our guidelines, you can see that we use a client-focused approach. We center our care around each client's comfort and well-being. Caregivers provide essential personal home care services to help:

• Minimize pain and other symptoms
• Assist with individual tasks such as dressing, bathing, and daily hygiene
• Alleviate feelings of loneliness, stress, and anxiety

We also ensure family and friend caregivers get the respite and assistance they need. Our caregivers assist with meal preparation, laundry, light housekeeping, shopping, and running errands. We think of our team as the anchor families need when feeling overwhelmed.
