End of Life Care in Cumberland, MD and Surrounding Areas
Comfort Keepers offers a range of end of life care services to help support your family during challenging times in their lives in Cumberland, Oakland, Keyser, and nearby cities
When a family member is diagnosed with limited life expectancy, he or she often has a strong desire to spend the final days in the comfort of home. However, providing 24 hour home care for a loved one at the end of their life can be emotionally challenging and physically exhausting. Comfort Keepers of Cumberland, MD can support you and your loved one by working with a hospice agency or palliative care provider to fully meet the family’s end of life care needs. We will help care for the client and help around the house as well as provide the family with emotional and moral support.
What Is End of Life Care?
This level of care is reserved for those who are terminally ill, have chronic diseases, or have a short lifespan. It is possible to have them done at home or in a nursing home. The goal of this care is to provide comfort to all parties involved so that every moment can be maximized. If necessary, these services can be extended to the family following the death of a loved one.
How Our Care Can Help Add To Palliative Care
A home health aide can help ease the stress and allow you to take every opportunity you can to be with your loved one. Our services include:
- bathing, dressing, and toileting assistance for your loved one
- light house cleaning
- laundry as needed
- food preparation
- companionship to your loved one so you can get a much-needed break
- a professional relationship with your palliative care provider to balance services
We can also continue to help after a loved one’s passing. Our Comfort Keepers can help families deal with the loss and assist with tasks such as organizing personal items and moving belongings—or simply being there to listen if family members need to talk and process their grief.
