Who is Palliative Care For?
Palliative care focuses on enhancing quality of life, managing symptoms, and providing emotional, social, and spiritual support. It is available to people of all ages facing serious or life-limiting illnesses, helping them remain as comfortable and independent as possible.
We understand that every journey is unique, and our team is here to support both individuals and their loved ones.
Our palliative care supports individuals with cancer, neurological conditions like Motor Neurone Disease, Parkinson’s, and Multiple Sclerosis, as well as heart, lung, kidney, and liver failure. We also care for those with dementia, progressive illnesses, and chronic or degenerative conditions.
In addition to medical support, palliative care offers guidance and respite for families and caregivers, ensuring they feel confident and supported throughout the journey.
Here for You, Every Step of the Way
Caring for a loved one at home during their final stages is a deeply personal choice. It allows them to stay in a familiar place, surrounded by love—but we know it can also feel overwhelming.
At Lumia Care, we’re here to lighten the load. While hospitals often arrange nurses to manage medications, we focus on the everyday support that makes a real difference. Our support workers provide emotional support and help navigate services, while our team can step in with overnight care so you can rest, shopping and household help to ease daily pressures, and companionship to ensure no one feels alone.
If you prefer private nursing care, we can arrange that too, alongside our broader supportive services.
You don’t have to do this alone—we’re here to help.
