Palliative Care for Seniors in and Around Carrollton, TX
If your older loved one has a chronic sickness or condition, they will most likely need some in-home support so they can continue living independently. On a regular basis, families may help with day-to-day responsibilities. However, seniors who are unwell often need emotional assistance and comfort in order to maintain hope and a good attitude despite their condition.
Fortunately, palliative care from Visiting Angels Carrollton can help your loved one receive not just physical help with daily duties, but also comfort and support from a loving caregiver. Our services are centered on helping seniors in Carrollton, Coppell, Farmers Branch and surrounding areas in Texas remain safe, comfortable and content in the comfort of their own homes.
What is Palliative Care?
Palliative care, which derives from the Latin term palliare, which means "to cloak," is a service that tries to relieve pain and give comfort to seniors who are living with a chronic disease. It is comparable to hospice care; however, palliative services are available to anybody, regardless of life expectancy, while hospice treatments are often designated for those with a life expectancy of six months or less.
How Can Palliative Services Help Seniors?
If your loved one has been living with a chronic illness for some time, you are well aware that they need support with daily duties. However, your loved one will benefit the most from more extensive care. A chronic disease may have an influence on your loved one's emotional and social well-being as well as their physical health. Palliative care fills in the gaps by addressing your loved one's social, emotional and spiritual needs, in addition to their physical needs.
