Palliative Care in Panama City, FL, Delivering Peace of Mind

When your loved one is diagnosed with a serious condition, it’s only natural to have concerns about the future. Some of these concerns might include being able to take care of themselves, taking medicine as prescribed, getting to doctor’s appointments–or simply having someone to talk with when needed.

Palliative care is designed to go beyond your loved one’s physical needs. It also addresses emotional, social and spiritual aspects so your loved one can live their best life while managing a chronic illness like heart failure, diabetes or cancer.

Our palliative care in Panama City, FL, can be offered at any time and at any location, including at home, an assisted living facility or a nursing home. This includes in conjunction with end-of-life care, or hospice services, that begins when medical treatment ceases.

With Visiting Angels Emerald Coast, your loved one can enjoy a better quality of life, all while maintaining their routine and independence. To learn more about how our nonmedical palliative care services can assist you and your family, request a free consultation by calling us at 850-215-3300 today!

What Palliative Care Is and How It Can Help Your Loved One
Palliative care is helpful for seniors who have been diagnosed with a serious or chronic condition. This non-medical service focuses on improving your loved one’s quality of life.
Receiving a life-changing diagnosis can be upsetting and stressful, but Visiting Angels is here to help your senior maintain a positive outlook on life and to help them age in place by successfully managing their condition at home.
Our certified program uses a holistic approach to improve your loved one’s physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being.
When Your Loved One Should Begin Palliative Care
Palliative care is appropriate whether your loved one has just received a serious diagnosis–such as cancer, heart failure or COPD–or has been living with their condition for years. It can also be provided if your loved one decides to stop medical treatment or when they’re in their final stages of life.
Differences Between Palliative Care and Hospice Services
Palliative care and hospice services both provide comfort and support to seniors when they’re facing a serious medical condition, but when they're offered and what they focus on differs.
Palliative care can be provided at any time regardless of expected outcome, including at the time of diagnosis or as the condition progresses. It focuses on improving quality of life so your loved one can live life to the fullest. It may be used alongside medical treatments from healthcare professionals or may be used on its own. It can be provided anywhere, including at home, in a healthcare facility or alongside medical hospice services.
Hospice care is offered to seniors who have a terminal diagnosis with limited life expectancy, usually six months or less. This type of care usually begins when medical treatments end and focuses on keeping your loved one comfortable. While it can be provided at home, it’s typically administered in a medical facility.
Supporting Your Loved One Through Whole-Person Palliative Care Services
Unlike traditional programs, Visiting Angels’ certified Palliative Care program takes a holistic approach, focusing on all aspects of your loved one’s well-being. This includes:
Delivering Physical Comfort: Our certified caregivers prioritize managing your loved one's physical well-being. While we don't provide medical services ourselves, we collaborate closely with your healthcare team to ensure a high level of support, which is available at home, an assisted living facility or a nursing home.
Managing Discomfort: Our compassionate caregivers understand the importance of managing physical symptoms and pain. While we don't provide medical services, we work hand-in-hand with your loved one's healthcare team. This includes providing non-medical support, like companionship and assistance with personal care for seniors, so your loved one remains comfortable and can focus on spending quality time with you.
Providing Emotional Support: Knowing the emotional toll an illness can take, our caregivers offer a comforting presence to your loved one. They provide a listening ear and a safe space to express anxieties, depression or anger through companion care. Even in difficult times, our caregivers strive to provide hope, well-being and purpose.
Building Meaningful Connections: Social interaction is extremely important for older adults, especially for those who live alone. Our caregivers take the time to build genuine relationships with your loved one to combat feelings of loneliness and isolation, and help them feel connected and valued.
Honoring Spiritual Well-Being: We respect the importance of spiritual connection and
offer a supportive environment for your loved one to explore their faith, meaning and purpose in life. This can involve conversations about their beliefs, or simply providing a space for quiet reflection. We’re committed to helping your loved one find comfort and peace during a challenging time.
