To us it's personal

Knowing your loved one is being treated with genuine warmth and respect can make a difficult time feel a little easier. We believe palliative care should always reflect the person behind the diagnosis, not just their symptoms, so we take the time to understand what continues to bring them comfort during this challenging time. From treasured routines to meaningful moments with family, every detail that matters to them, matters to us. Our Care Professionals can provide anything your loved one needs to feel settled, such as sensitive personal care, practical home help, mobility support, medication management, and more. They also aim to create a calming, comforting presence within the home to encourage rest where possible. All of our services are delivered in line with Care Quality Commission regulations, and by working closely with your loved one's clinical team, we can help ensure that every aspect of their care remains coordinated and is always delivered to the highest standards during every visit.

Choosing Home Instead Livingston for personalised home care

The right Care Professional can change support from something unfamiliar into something comforting and reassuring. That's why we match your loved one with someone who not only has the skills and experience to help, but whose personality and caring approach are aligned, helping to create a genuine connection. As familiarity grows, their regular, consistent visits can become something to look forward to. Whether accompanying them to appointments at St John’s Hospital, coordinating with visiting healthcare professionals or simply providing emotional support at home, they can offer the tailored care your loved one needs during every stage of their journey. Specialist palliative care training prepares every Care Professional to respond compassionately to changing needs, while regular reviews with your family allow us to continue delivering personalised care that aligns with your loved one's priorities.

Our Livingston Team is With You Through Every Step

Remaining at home during palliative care allows your loved one to continue enjoying familiar routines while staying close to family, friends and everything that helps them feel comfortable in their daily life. Studies find that those with a life-limiting illness and their families both prefer to receive this kind of care at home, so Home Instead's Livingston team helps make this possible by reducing the practical pressures often associated with this type of care, and providing compassionate, personalised support so your family can focus on spending time with your loved one. A dedicated Care Professional can help with things like bathing and dressing, preparing nourishing meals, offering reassuring companionship if desired, and supporting their medical needs by helping manage symptoms in line with their personalised care plan. Behind every Care Professional is a dedicated office team responsible for coordinating care planning, organising schedules, reviewing the service regularly and adapting support whenever your loved one's needs change. Our close communication with district nurses, GPs and local palliative care specialists helps ensure every part of their care remains focused on their wellbeing so they can stay comfortable and enjoy peace of mind in the home they love.
