Palliative/ Comfort Care Services

Our Comfort Care Program is designed to ensure that residents experience a sense of dignity, comfort, and support throughout their journey, right up to the end of life. Here’s what it entails:

Holistic Support: From the moment of admission, our program envelops residents in a circle of care. We prioritize their well-being, physical comfort, and emotional needs.

Quality of Life Goals: Residents and their families express their desires for quality of life, which include:

  • Adequate Pain and Symptom Management: We strive to alleviate pain and manage symptoms effectively. Our goal is to enhance residents’ comfort and minimize distress.
  • Avoiding Inappropriate Prolongation of Dying: We respect each resident’s wishes regarding medical interventions. Our approach is guided by compassion and understanding.
  • Sense of Control: Residents maintain autonomy and control over their care decisions. We empower them to express their preferences and make informed choices.
  • Relieving Burden: Families receive emotional and practical support. We aim to ease their burden during this challenging time.
  • Strengthening Family Relationships: Our program fosters connections among family members. We encourage open communication and shared moments of love and understanding.
