End of life care
End-of-life care refers to health care, not only of a person in the final hours or days of their lives, but more broadly care of all those with a terminal condition that has become advanced, progressive, and incurable. We are experts in providing superior, specialist Palliative Care for individuals with terminal illnesses who want to remain in their own homes.
We understand that at such a stressful and sensitive time, specialist nursing care and trustworthy support can make a huge difference in how you cope with such a diagnosis. Our team of homecare managers, registered nurses and carers have a wealth of palliative care experience and are experts at providing practical and emotional support and care for the patient and their loved ones.
Physical disability care
In Deluxe Healthcare our trained staffs provide quality care for people who are suffering from physical disabilities. Deluxe Healthcare follows the principles of person-centred care and seeks to recognise and maintain, as far as is possible, an individual’s unique qualities, abilities, interests, preferences, and needs.
We understand that at such a stressful and sensitive time, specialist nursing care and trustworthy support can make a huge difference in how you cope with such a diagnosis.
Healthy body, healthy mind
Staying healthy physically can help you stay healthy emotionally too. If you’re eating the right food and keeping fit, your body will be strong and help you to cope with stress and also fight illness. A popular phrase says ‘A healthy mind makes a healthy body’
Too often people sit alone with only the television for company. We believe that mental stimulation through brain teasers, puzzles and games can keep our customers more alert and happier with their lives.
Research shows that our brains are just as capable of learning in the second half of life as in the first. Brains can continue to be stimulated with simple activities such as crossword puzzles, card games, Sudoku, tic-tac-toe and scrabble. Choosing to do some brain activities several times a week can keep our minds sharp and able to function at a higher level. Sometimes we just need a bit of encouragement or someone to engage with us in order to try new activities or to revisit old ones. It’s never too late!
At Deluxe Healthcare we create a care and support plan with you that can include time for stimulation and fun as part of your homecare.
Mind, body and soul
In Deluxe HealthCare we believe that staying fit and healthy is an important part of maintaining good mental and physical fitness at any age. If a client has an interest and ability to participate in local activities, our care workers are able to support them and be involved as part of the home care plan. Or perhaps a client may want support to do some simple activities at home.
Benefits of Physical Activity
Engaging in a healthy active lifestyle helps stimulate the brain and assists in staying independent. It can also be immensely enjoyable.
Some of the specific benefits of physical activity are:
- Reducing the risk of developing chronic diseases;
- Aids in the management of active problems such as high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and high cholesterol;
- Improves the ability to function and stay independent in cases where people have lung disease or arthritis;
Reduces symptoms of depression and pain; and - Improves balance and prevents falls.
We encourage and support our customers to take part in simple, healthy activities, which may include something as basic as walking or dancing. Of course, participation in any activity will depend on the customer’s choice and abilities.
A member of our team will discuss your preferences with you as part of your tailored homecare and support plan.
