Palliative care is a delicate topic that many find difficult to discuss. It’s a service designed to support individuals with life-limiting or terminal illnesses, helping them live as comfortably and actively as possible. While traditionally associated with hospitals, palliative care can also be provided in the comfort of your own home, offering numerous benefits for both the patient and their loved ones. In this blog we go into the benefits of palliative care at home, home versus the hospital, and the planning involved for palliative care.

Recent years have witnessed a profound shift in how society perceives disability. Moving beyond outdated stereotypes and restrictive definitions, individuals with disabilities are now increasingly asserting their rights, showcasing their talents, and making their voices heard. This paradigm shift represents a critical evolution in our understanding of disability, guiding us towards a future where every individual's potential is acknowledged and valued.

At Trusted Home Care on the Central Coast, we recognise that fostering a strong, supportive community is not just a benefit but a necessity for enhancing the lives of our participants. Here’s how we emphasise community building and why it’s crucial for both individuals and families involved in the NDIS.
