Palliative Care and Respite care

Palliative care is a comprehensive form of medical treatment aimed at alleviating the symptoms and stress associated with a serious illness. It is integrated with other treatments to enhance the overall quality of life for patients and their families by addressing emotional distress and managing symptoms such as pain, nausea, fatigue, difficulty breathing, depression, or anxiety. The primary goal of palliative care is to provide comfort and support.

Our palliative care services are designed to offer comfort and assistance to individuals facing serious illnesses, allowing them and their families to spend their remaining days in the comfort of their own home.

At First Support Health Care, our caregivers are trained to provide personalized care tailored to the needs of each patient, regardless of diagnosis or prognosis. We prioritize holistic care, focusing on enhancing the patient’s quality of life through physical, emotional, spiritual, and social support.

Our services include medication reminders, transportation to appointments, companionship, and respite care. Our trusted caregivers offer much-needed companionship and respite care, enabling family members to take care of themselves.

In addition to respite care and companionship, we also provide personal care in various areas, including:

• bathing and showering assistance,
• bed baths,
• grooming,
• oral hygiene,
• toilet and incontinence care,
• meal preparation,
• laundry, and organization.

At First Support Health Care, we are committed to supporting individuals and their families during challenging times, ensuring comfort, dignity, and quality of life.
