Palliative Care

Our palliative care is focused on ensuring that residents are as comfortable and supported as possible, with a team dedicated to meeting their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. We work closely with GPs, specialist nurses, and other healthcare professionals to provide expert symptom management, pain relief, and personal care, ensuring that each resident’s final stages of life are lived with respect, dignity, and peace.

We recognise that this can be an emotional time for residents and their loved ones, which is why we create an environment of warmth, understanding, and reassurance. Families are always welcome to spend time together, sharing precious moments in a calm and supportive setting. Our team is here to offer guidance, comfort, and a listening ear, ensuring that both residents and their loved ones feel cared for at every step.

Palliative care is designed for those living with a serious, life-limiting illness, where the focus shifts from curative treatment to managing symptoms, relieving pain, and ensuring comfort. At Ashlea Court, our approach is centred on individual needs and wishes, creating a care plan that supports both physical and emotional wellbeing.

 

Our experienced team provides gentle, person-centred support, ensuring that residents receive care that is tailored to their preferences and delivered with kindness and respect. We offer assistance with pain management, mobility, personal care, and emotional support, always ensuring that residents feel comfortable and at ease. In addition to clinical care, we provide sensory therapies, soothing surroundings, and companionship, helping to create a peaceful and reassuring environment.

We also understand how vital family and friends are during this time, which is why we offer a welcoming, open environment where loved ones can visit freely and spend quality time together.
