Mr and Mrs A give their thoughts:
We would like to say a big thank you to all the wonderful girls who come every day to care for Eric. The girls never fail to bring a ray of sunshine when they call and although their work is demanding, they take it in their stride and nothing is too much trouble for them.

Palliative/End of Life Services
Sevacare recognises that Palliative/End of Life Care can be a difficult and traumatic time for both the Service User and their family/friends. Sevacare believe the choices of the individual should be at the centre of all Palliative and End of Life care planning and delivery. Sevacare ensures care is delivered in a sensitive, person-centred manner and takes account of the circumstances, wishes and priorities of the individual, their family and friends.
Person Centred Care and Support
Sevacare believe that palliative and end of life care should be person centred and the needs and wishes of the Individual should be recognised and acted upon. We will initiate discussions as early as possible to establish the needs and wishes of the Individual such as where and how they would like to die and any culturally appropriate methods which may be required. We ensure the service is delivered to how the Indivi
dual wants to live the rest of their life and ensure practical issues are adhered to, such as pain management, medication and specific personal care needs.
Open Communication
Sevacare ensures we communicate effectively with the individual, families and friends as well as any other advocates involved in the Individuals care and support. We will provide support for Carers and families during this difficult time including during the illness of their loved ones and after their death. The Individual’s Carer/s, families and friends have a vital role in the care and support delivery with palliative and end of life care, and we will ensure they are fully supported during this time.
Working in Partnership
Sevacare believes the best service for end of life care is delivered through a holistic approach. We believe this is achieved though working in partnership with the Individual, the Carer/s, Family as well as other healthcare professionals and voluntary and community sector groups, to ensure service quality promotes independence, choice and promotes social interaction.
Specialist Care Teams
Sevacare ensures specialist palliative and end of life care teams provide this service. Each member of the team has been trained on how to deliver this service sensitively and effectively. Care teams are carefully selected and matched to each Individual to ensure they feel comfortable, safe and confident with their care team. We also ensure continuity of care, ensuring it is the same care team at all times. We ensure the care teams can empathise and sympathise with the Individual, as well as the carer/family. Specialist training is also provided which includes pain control, intensive care dignity, cultural awareness, dealing with death and notification of death.
