End of life care
It’s deeply important to us that individuals receive dignified, personalized care as they approach the end of life, all within the comforting environment of their own home.
We believe everyone should have the choice of where they spend their final days, surrounded by the familiar faces and places that bring them comfort. For many, being at home with loved ones is where they feel most at peace.
Our commitment is to deliver care that is not only professional but also deeply compassionate and respectful during these final stages of life.

We also understand how important it is to involve family and friends in this process, if that is what your loved one desires.
Our approach is tailored to meet specific needs, recognizing and respecting each person’s spiritual and emotional needs, as well as their right to dignity at this critical time.

Understanding End of Life Care:
We understand the heartache that comes with witnessing a loved one’s health decline. This is a time when compassionate support becomes essential. At Kumra Care, we’re here to provide the end-of-life care that allows families to cherish their time together, offering both comfort and care during these challenging moments.
Why choose End of Life Care at Home?
End-of-life care is about providing comfort, relief, and compassionate support to individuals in their final days of life. Our goal at Kumra Care is to improve the quality of life for our clients as they near the end, treating them with the same care and respect we would extend to our own families. We build our care plans around each person’s unique needs and preferences, ensuring they feel truly cared for.
How long is End of Life Care?
End-of-life care begins whenever you or your loved one feels it’s needed and can last from a few days to several months, or even longer. Each person’s journey is unique, and we’re here to provide support every step of the way.
End-of-life care can benefit those in a variety of situations, including:
Those with conditions expected to result in death within 12 months.
Individuals facing life-threatening situations from sudden events, like a stroke or accident.
Those with advanced, incurable illnesses such as cancer or dementia.
People with chronic conditions where a sudden change could be life-threatening.
What’s the difference between End of Life Care and Palliative Care?
End-of-life care provides support and treatment for individuals and their families as they approach life’s end, typically within the last year. Palliative care, while it may include end-of-life care, is broader and focuses on managing symptoms and improving quality of life for those with long-term, incurable illnesses.
Our approach to End of Life Home Care:
One of the profound benefits of end-of-life care at home is that it allows your loved one to remain in the place where they feel most secure and comfortable. This can also bring peace of mind to family and friends, knowing their loved one is receiving attentive care in familiar surroundings.
Home care is often less disruptive than hospice or hospital care, making this challenging period a bit more manageable. With round-the-clock support, any changes in your loved one’s condition will be promptly noticed and addressed.
Our highly trained carers are here to enhance the quality of life for your loved one while allowing them to stay at home.
Our care can include:
Providing companionship and supporting independent living at home.
Assisting with mobility, whether it’s gentle support or more intensive help.
Preparing meals according to individual preferences and taking care of the cleanup.
Offering medication support, from reminders to administering necessary medications.
Assisting with pain management.
Running essential errands like collecting prescriptions or grocery shopping.
Our care assistants are fully trained in end-of-life care and continually develop their skills to offer the best possible support during these difficult times.
We’re here for you, to walk with you through each step of this journey with empathy, care, and understanding.
