About end of life support

What it usually involves

Comfort and company in someone's final weeks or months at home: help with washing and changing, mouth care, gentle repositioning, sitting with them, and giving the family time to rest or simply be together.

How a self-employed carer can help

A calm, steady presence alongside the GP, district nurses and hospice team, who look after pain relief and clinical care. A good carer supports the whole family, not just the person who is ill.

Why I started Carers & Cleaners

When my mum, Jean, was diagnosed with dementia, I found it surprisingly hard to find good local help. In the end we found a wonderful independent carer, and later a cleaner, by word of mouth. I built Carers & Cleaners so other families don't have to rely on luck.
