Frequently Asked Questions About End of Life Care

End of life care includes palliative care. If you have an illness that cannot be cured, palliative care makes you as comfortable as possible, by managing your pain and other distressing symptoms. It also involves psychological, social and spiritual support for you and your family or carers.

End of life care is approached holistically, with several different agencies involved to manage all aspects of your care. The multidisciplinary team may include carers, GPs, community nurses, social care staff, physiotherapists and occupational therapists.

End of life care can be carried out in any setting or facility you like. Some of the most common places to have end of life care are at home, the hospital, care home and a number of other settings. Palliative care, or end of life care, isn’t there to be rigid, it is there to make the service user as comfortable as possible right up until the end.

Palliative doctors and care teams have concerns regarding who you are, not just your illness, they understand that people who are seriously sick can be frightened and unsure of themselves when making medical decisions. At Golden Services Care we understand that there’s not always a right or wrong answer and that your care needs and wishes may change over time. Palliative doctors also consider this when it comes to helping develop a treatment plan.

Palliative care is whole-person care which helps to relieve symptoms of a disease or a disorder. Hospices provide a specific type of palliative care for people who are likely to have 6 months or less to live. To sum this up, hospice care is always palliative but not all palliative care takes place in a hospice.

Yes, your palliative doctor will coordinate your care with your other doctors and help to care for you with a care system for your requirements.
