What is Palliative care?
Palliative care at home is all about improving the quality of life for those living with a life-threatening illness or condition. With Home Instead, you and your loved ones can focus more on what truly matters, while we take care of the rest. Our services are designed to reduce the stress and burden on families during this challenging time.
We assist with arranging medical appointments, help around the home, prepare nutritious meals, and provide personal care when needed. Our compassionate team is here to offer you and your family peace of mind, knowing that your loved one is receiving the best possible care in the comfort of their own home.
Palliative care & support at home
Being told that you need palliative care can be an emotional and distressing experience, not only for you but also for your loved ones. At Visiting Angels South Leicestershire, our Care Professionals are here to offer both practical and emotional support, providing care that is tailored to meet your individual needs, while helping you stay at home where you feel most comfortable.
We understand that when faced with a life-limiting illness, most people prefer to remain in their own home—where they feel in control and at peace. This is an emotional time for all involved, and we are here to provide compassionate, bespoke palliative care at home services to help you and your family navigate it with dignity and support.
The key to our palliative care at home is ensuring that your loved one is comfortable and able to live life on their own terms during their final months or years. We focus on comfort, care, and providing the freedom to enjoy precious moments with loved ones.


Benefits of Palliative care
Our Care Professionals are highly trained and thoroughly assessed to ensure they meet your specific care needs. This means that you receive the best possible support, often alleviating the pressure on family caregivers. Research shows that effective, tailored care can help reduce complications and improve comfort, often allowing individuals to remain at home rather than requiring hospital admissions.
At Visiting Angels South Leicestershire, we understand that care needs to be flexible and responsive. That’s why we provide care when you need it, not when it’s convenient for others. Your care, your way—delivered with compassion and respect, right in the comfort of your own home.
