What is End-of-Life Care?
End-of-life care is a compassionate form of support provided to individuals in the final stages of a terminal illness or the natural aging process. This specialized care focuses on enhancing comfort, preserving dignity, and alleviating pain for those nearing the end of their life journey. In addition to the medical treatment one might receive during this stage of life, end-of-life care can include a holistic approach to address physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs, ensuring the individual and their loved ones are supported through this profound transition.
The goal of Visiting Angel’s End-of-Life Care is to help provide a serene, respectful environment where the individual can spend their remaining days in peace and with the highest possible quality of life, surrounded by the warmth and love of their family and their caregivers.
How Can Visiting Angels Help?
During the final days, weeks, or months of a person’s life, they often need personal care assistance to help with dressing, bathing, and hygiene, as well as help with daily tasks such as preparing meals. In many cases, these responsibilities fall on the shoulders of family and friends, often leaving them little time to just sit with and comfort their loved one, much less to continue to care for their other personal, professional, and family obligations.If it is too difficult for the family to shoulder this responsibility on their own, Visiting Angels can help provide the assistance and support needed during this emotionally difficult time.
Our caregivers will work with your family and your loved one’s care professionals to help as needed, providing comfort physically and emotionally in order to help improve your loved one's quality of life during the time they have left.
