Palliative care
We’re here for you, every step of the way.
Understanding the dying process can help you provide compassionate care.
How we care for your loved one
Our palliative care programs are all staffed 24/7 by our compassionate and qualified carers and registered nurses. We create a personalised palliative care plan for each resident, and provide specialist pain management and emotional support to help them through end-of-life, surrounded by care and love.
Pain management
If your loved one seems distressed or in pain, please tell a staff member. Medication and comfort care are always available. We outline how symptoms are managed, working closely with their regular doctors, nurses and specialists.
Emotional support
You matter to us just as much as the person you’re caring for. We can arrange support from counsellors, psychologists and social workers for you and your family.
Spiritual support
Our Chaplaincy program supports everyone, regardless of faith. Chaplains can provide prayer, services, sacraments and anointing, and arrange referrals to counsellors or other support services for you or for other family members. Ask a staff member if you’d like to speak with a chaplain.
Family support
We help you and your family make decisions about care options and provide support during bereavement. Our clinical and palliative care staff can provide more information, answer questions and support you and your loved ones during this time.
