The Benefits Of Palliative Care At Home

At Prestige Inhome Care, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to spend the last stages of their life, in their own home, surrounded by the people and things they love most.

We also understand the challenges of supporting a loved one with a life-limiting illness.

November 25, 2021

To enable you, or your loved one, to stay in the comfort of home with pride and dignity, we will work alongside your hospital discharge team, GP and community palliative care team to provide tailored care.

Palliative care in the comfort and privacy of your own home will give you more options and greater choices, so you and your loved ones can focus on the things that really matter.

Our approach to in-home palliative care services is based on:

Tailored support

We can offer in-home support, where every aspect of your palliative care is tailored to suit you or your loved one’s needs and wants, giving you greater flexibility and choice.

Our respectful and experienced team of registered nurses and carers are also able to provide round-the-clock support, to help take care of everything.

As part of your tailored support, you and your loved ones will be supported by a dedicated Prestige Inhome Care Case Manager who will coordinate and oversee all aspects of your care plan.

Shared care facilitation

We will work alongside your hospital discharge team, GP, community palliative care team, and anyone else involved, to provide seamless care and support to you or your loved one.

Experienced nurses and medication support

Our respectful and experienced team of registered nurses can assess, plan and administer daily medication and manage symptoms. They can also provide round-the-clock nursing care if you or your loved one have high-support needs. 

Flexible care

You can start and change your care and/or nurses and carers or move to a hospice or hospital at any time. You are not locked into any contract or any set care plan. You can also cancel at any time.

Partnerships with allied health 

We work closely with allied health professionals and equipment providers to help you receive reduced wait times and rates, to ensure your home is set up to best meet your needs.

Supporting family and loved ones 

To allow you to focus on the things that really matter, we can provide a variety of domestic care services, including cooking, cleaning, shopping, and other household errands.
