Each person's priorities during palliative care are unique; some wish to remain surrounded by family as much as possible, while others value peaceful afternoons alone with a favourite hobby, or maintaining familiar daily routines for as long as they comfortably can. By understanding these individual preferences from the start, we can continue to provide care that feels genuinely personal and reassuring, even as needs change over time. Our Care Professionals are trained and assessed to fulfil your loved one's specialist care needs, and can provide support with everything required at home, from personal care to mobility assistance. Their goal is to maintain a calm home environment where your loved one can rest with dignity. We aim to build trusting relationships through consistency, kindness, and attentive support that adapts easily, and we do this in accordance with Care Quality Commission regulations. This helps families trust our care throughout their palliative care experience.
Whatever your situation, Home Instead can provide quality care to enable your loved one to stay where they belong: at home. Share your details here and one of our friendly advisors will reach out to answer your questions.

Choosing palliative care at home doesn't mean facing the journey alone. From the outset, we match your loved one with a dedicated Care Professional whose personality and approach complement their own, helping to create a relationship that's built on trust, consistency and a genuine understanding of what will make the biggest difference to their life during this challenging time. Whether accompanying them to appointments at Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, coordinating with visiting clinicians, or providing steady emotional support between family visits, they become a familiar source of reassurance for your loved one if they decide to remain at home. Our Care Professionals receive specialist training in palliative care alongside ongoing guidance from our experienced local team. Regular reviews with you and your family help us to adjust support whenever priorities change, and ensures your loved one continues to benefit from meaningful relationships that can bring them much-needed comfort, connection and emotional wellbeing during this time.
Studies find that many people with a life-limiting illness and their families prefer palliative care to take place at home, which can enhance their quality of life by allowing them to enjoy the comforts of home. Home Instead's Ashby St Mary team helps families preserve this sense of familiarity by providing compassionate, personalised support every day within the home. A dedicated Care Professional can help with necessary care, such as bathing and dressing, preparing favourite meals, adjusting pillows and bedding, supporting safe mobility around the home, and identifying changes that should be shared with healthcare professionals to help manage symptoms effectively. By working closely with district nurses, GPs and local palliative specialists, we help ensure your loved one's comfort remains the priority throughout their care. Meanwhile, our dedicated local office team coordinates every aspect of the service, from care planning and scheduling to regular reviews and adapting support as your loved one's needs change over time.
