End-of-Life Care to Help Families in Waldorf, MD, and Nearby Areas
During one’s final stages of life, it can be harsh on the individual and their family as well. With end-of-life care services, clients and their families can receive emotional and physical support during this difficult time.
Visiting Angels Provides Crucial End-of-Life Care for All Members of the Family in Waldorf, MD, and Surrounding Areas
While this process is a natural part of our life cycle as humans, it does not make it any easier. There has been an increasing number of people choosing to spend their last days in their homes, which is why it is vital to have access to compassionate and supportive home care services. Sadly, most training services for care providers overlook or misunderstand end-of-life care.
Visiting Angels of Waldorf offers this senior care option to assist our clients and their loved ones during this painful transition. Our team members work with their clients and families to make everyone comfortable. Our care services do not include hospice care, but we can work alongside/support a hospice team.
What is End-of-Life Care?
End-of-life care services are used when an individual is diagnosed with a limited life expectancy; these individuals typically require care in some form to assist with pain and any other symptoms. For most individuals, this care falls upon their family members and close friends. If you find yourself in this position, you may find that you don’t have the emotional or physical strength to do it on your own. Providing emotional care is where Visiting Angels can be of assistance.
Our in-home care services offer you and your family compassionate and patient care during the final stages of life. With Visiting Angels, you will receive dedicated levels of support through our Life Care Navigation collection of senior care services. We outline how we approach end-of-life care in our Practical Care Tips for End-of-Life program; this program is designed to give our caregivers the information they will need to best support their clients and their families. Our caregivers use a client-based approach with these guidelines. We center our care around each client’s needs while also working with the client’s comfort and well-being.
