Having a voice in decisions about your health care treatment is important. By planning in advance and reviewing the supports you need, your family and health care team will know your wishes and can ensure these wishes are followed allowing you to focus on saying goodbye together, experiencing the end of life and death in the manner most meaningful to you. Advance Care Planning is a gift for loved ones.
Respite and comfort care gives the caregiver and loved ones temporary relief from the emotional and physical demands of caring for a loved one with a terminal illness. Respite care can help when you need a rest yourself and some time away to look after your own needs.
Providing bedside support during the final days. Keeping vigil means quietly waiting and sitting with the dying person keeping awake and alert. The vigil provides companionship and comfort so that the dying person is not alone.
