Palliative care at home
Palliative care at home provides families with the necessary support to care for their loved ones who have a terminal illness. The focus is on relieving symptoms, pain, and stress.
Palliative or End-of-Life Care
Compassionate Support in the Comfort of Home
Palliative care at home helps families care for loved ones with terminal illnesses by focusing on relieving pain, managing symptoms, and reducing stress. This service allows the patient to remain in their familiar home environment, surrounded by loved ones and cherished memories.
​
Our care professionals are specially trained in palliative care, covering pain management, personal care, meal preparation, companionship, and providing essential support to the patient’s family.
​
Who is Palliative Care For?
Palliative care is for individuals with severe or life-threatening conditions who wish to manage their symptoms at home, avoiding the need for hospital or hospice care. We work closely with families to ensure the highest level of comfort and dignity, with care professionals who are not only trained but experienced in offering emotional and practical support during this challenging time.
How Does Palliative Care Work?
During your free assessment, we take the time to understand your loved one’s unique needs and preferences. Based on this, we create a personalised palliative care plan focused on symptom relief, pain management, and ensuring comfort at every stage.

-
Personal care, washing, and dressing.

Dog Therapy for Palliative Care
Comfort, Companionship, and Emotional Support
We’ve been supporting the Hospice in the Weald with therapy dog visits, recognising the valuable role they play in palliative care. Dog therapy offers comfort and emotional support, with the presence of a well-trained dog helping to reduce stress, promote relaxation, and lower blood pressure — improving overall well-being.
​
Beyond physical benefits, dog therapy encourages social interaction, boosts communication, and provides positive distractions, enhancing quality of life for patients. The release of endorphins from petting or cuddling a dog offers a natural mood boost, fostering emotional peace and well-being during difficult times.
"The care administered by the carers who attend to my mother has been outstanding, they are very attentive, very professional and seem to care very much about my mother's well-being."

"Amora Care was great at reassuring Mum and Dad at a time when they needed it most. We are very grateful for the care and support received. Excellent all around."
Selena, Tonbridge
"Sarah gave us so much information and advice during our assessment that I knew I had to go with Amora! It was a breath of fresh air not to be hard sold anything but just genuine advice and great care..."
