End of Life Care

At Whitmore Care we know that given a choice many individuals would prefer to die at home, however for both them and their families the fear, emotional hurdles, and practicalities of caring for someone at this stage of life can be challenging. Reflecting this, we have a dedicated palliative care service to support clients and their loved ones at home. The palliative care team at Whitmore Care recognizes that due to medical advances, people with serious illnesses are often living in poor conditions for longer. Ensuring dignity, compassion, and respect in these circumstances is a priority in the care we provide.

Our ethos at Whitmore Care is to provide the highest quality care and support possible, to mirror that of the highly respected hospice movement. This service has been designed to complement other palliative care teams and hospices often involved in the person’s end-of-life care.

• Support from 2 to 24-hour care, enabling freedom of choice and flexibility.
• The Whitmore Care teamwork in partnership with community palliative care teams, other specialists from the multidisciplinary team as well as family and friends.
• Our highly committed team have a passion for making a difference in the lives of the people we support – alongside our robust induction training our team also complete our specialist End Of Life Care training and are continuously mentored and supported.
