What Is End Of Life Care?

End of life care supports someone during the final stage of their life. Here at Oakbank Care Home, we consider the person’s comfort, dignity and emotional wellbeing while recognising the importance of family relationships and personal wishes.

Every person’s experience is different. Some people may require significant nursing support while others may need help with everyday personal care and comfort. At Oakbank, we take the time to understand what each resident needs and what matters to them. Their care is planned around their individual circumstances and reviewed as their needs change.

A Familiar Environment For End Of Life Care

The surroundings where someone spends their final stage of life can be incredibly important. Oakbank Care Home provides a comfortable environment in Crieff where residents can receive care without losing the sense of individuality that makes their room and daily routine feel like their own.

Residents can spend time in their own room or make use of the home’s communal areas and gardens depending on how they feel. There is no expectation that every resident should follow the same routine. As needs change, we adapt our approach around the person. This can help create a more peaceful and reassuring experience for both residents and their families.
