    Person-centred care

    Everyone experiences palliative care differently, so we begin by listening carefully to what brings comfort and reassurance. Some people like quiet companionship and steady routines; others value conversation, favourite programmes, music or time with pets and family. Many draw strength from faith, cultural traditions or small familiar rituals that make the day feel more manageable. Our Care Professionals take the time to understand these preferences and adapt each visit accordingly, never rushing or forcing a particular approach.

    Support can include help with washing and dressing, gentle repositioning, light meals and drinks, and assistance moving safely around the home. We can also help with changing bedding, supporting continence care, prompting pre-prescribed medication and keeping the environment tidy and calm. Families are kept informed, with clear, honest communication that respects their wishes, privacy and pace. By paying attention to the smallest details and responding thoughtfully as needs change, we help create a steadier, more reassuring atmosphere for everyone involved each day. This consistency can feel stabilising.

    Choosing Home Instead for personalised palliative care in Cheshire

    Our palliative care at home in Cheshire is tailored around daily life rather than asking someone to fit into a set routine. A visit might involve support with washing and dressing, assistance getting in and out of bed, or preparing a simple meal and a favourite drink. Care Professionals can also offer companionship, read aloud, help someone enjoy the garden, and support with agreed medication prompts recorded in the care plan.

    They can keep an eye on comfort, noticing changes in mobility, appetite or mood and sharing observations with family or health professionals where appropriate. Every visit is planned thoughtfully, ensuring the pace and level of support feel comfortable for the client. Household tasks, such as tidying areas or putting a wash on, can be included. We aim to ease practical pressure so families have the energy to spend time together and experience moments of connection.
