Services | Palliative Care

Palliative Care is offered to provide personal dignity and pain relief to individuals at a difficult time.

Sometimes Residents of the Home are faced with medical situations in which a cure is not an option. In this case, the Residents may benefit from our Palliative Care Program. While certain illness may warrant efforts to "cure" the condition, the aim of the Palliative Care Program is to provide "comfort and support" when a cure is not a viable alternative.

Our medical team evaluates the Residents and his/her medical condition to determine whether palliative care is an appropriate option. The team then meets with the Resident to plan and appropriate steps to take. Together this team creates a plan to provide the right kind of comfort that the Resident will need on an on-going basis.
