Having palliative care does not mean you are imminently coming to the end of your life although in most cases palliative care leads to end of life care eventually, however, some people have palliative care for a lengthy time before their condition worsens significantly. At FDR Social Care we believe that when living with a life-threatening health condition it is important that the focus is on your quality of life and supporting you achieve that will always be at a pivotal point of what we do. We look at your care and support from a holistic view ad not just your illness alone. Our carers will also be there to support you and your loved ones with the emotional aspects of your illness, whether you need a listening ear, someone to hold your hand or even just to for example put the kettle on for a hot drink.
