Palliative Care

Palliative care incorporates all elements of the daily life of a person nearing the end of their life. This includes personal care: strip and/or bed wash, mouth care, incontinence care, feeding, and aspects of domestic chores.

Ivybank Care Home recognises that the delivery of quality end of life care services to individuals, their relatives and friends require effective communication, empathy and understanding of the needs of the persons being cared for and the emotional expectations of their family members. Our care services ensure that these expectations are met through careful observation and monitoring and appropriate feedback.

Ivybank Care Home provides a dignified, sensitive and person-centred support, to meet the total needs of the resident.
