End of Life Care in Fayetteville

When someone you love is nearing the end of their life, you want to spend that time by their side sharing old memories and simply being present. At Visiting Angels in Fayetteville, Georgia, we understand how hard this time can be. Our caregivers offer caring, non-medical support that helps families going through this to feel more at peace during the incredibly emotional journey.

End-of-life care is given to someone in the final stages of a serious illness. This type of care does not try to cure an individual. Instead, it focuses on their comfort, and their dignity. Our caregivers work side-by-side with the hospice workers to help keep your loved one clean, comfortable and calm. We also relieve family caretakers of doing everyday tasks so that you can spend meaningful time with your loved one.

End-of-Life Care Near Me

Whether your loved one is at home, in a care facility or medical center, our trained caregivers provide comfort when you need it the most. Family members often try to handle everything themselves, but that can be very tiring and overwhelming. That’s when a Visiting Angel can step in. We help with non-medical care in the home, hospital, or even in a hospice setting to take some of the stress off your shoulders.

Visiting Angels’ caregivers help with tasks like:

• Bathing and getting dressed.
• Light cleaning and laundry.
• Meal prep and grocery shopping.
• Helping with bathroom needs.
• Providing quiet company and emotional support.
• Supporting family members who need a short break.

How is End-of-Life Care Different from Hospice?

This is a source of confusion for many. Even though we don’t offer medical care, we stay in touch with your loved one’s hospice or healthcare team to keep everything running smoothly.

Hospice care is provided by licensed medical professionals (doctors and nurses) for someone with a terminal illness.

Visiting Angels provides non-medical care that can work alongside hospice. We help by keeping the home safe and clean, offering our companionship and assisting in the daily routine.

Are Your Caregivers Trained for This Kind of Care?

Yes, they are. Our caregivers receive special training so they know how to support the person receiving care and their families. Caregivers learn about the stages of dying, how to be calm and helpful during emotional moments. We also know what steps to take in the event that a client passes away while in our care. This training helps caregivers act as a strong support system.

How to Start End-of-Life Care Planning

It’s a good idea to talk about end-of-life wishes early. If your family member is already in the final stages of life, give our care coordinator a call to get started. We’ll meet with you for a free consultation to learn about your loved one’s needs, come up with a care plan and begin care immediately.

Visiting Angels’ Care for the Whole Family

End-of-life care isn’t just about the person who’s ill. It also affects the people who love them. Our caregivers will take care of errands, perform light housework and daily grooming so you have more time to focus on your loved one. We are a source of comfort and a shoulder to cry on for the entire family. Families will have some peace of mind knowing that their loved one is being treated with the utmost respect and dignity in their final days.
