P alliative Care is the active care of client’s with a terminal condition that no longer responds to treatment. Our care is about providing the best quality of life for them and their families.It focuses on controlling pain and other symptoms, easing suffering and enhancing the life that remains. It integrates the psychological, social and spiritual aspects of care to enable families during both the client’s illness and their bereavement. The support palliative care offers is often needed early on in the illness, assisting in the understanding of the illness and preparing the person and their family for each progressive step. Prestige believes that understanding and knowledge empowers people to regain control and facilitates informed decision making, hence Palliative Care is a vital part of all clinical practice, whatever the illness or its stage. Prestige has the experience to provide the nursing, social and personal care that is appropriate. Staff work closely with all other medical disciplinarians and voluntary organisations to ensure your loved one receives the highest standard of care and support here on the Costa Blanca. We also recognise the need for the personal support of the individual’s family, including respite from the stress of caring in the home environment. Bereavement
We understand that it is during these times that the distance between Spain and England seems ever the greater, Prestige offer a weekly email service to family members back in England to ensure they feel fully informed and involved in the care provided. We give assistance and information for funeral arrangements, our highly skilled staff undertake the sometimes very difficult conversations to ascertain the clients wishes and personal requests, and we will even take charge of the final arrangements if that is required. |
