Palliative and end-of-life care
Clinical support, comfort and dignity when time matters.
SafeHands supports adults who wish to receive palliative or end-of-life care in familiar surroundings, with nursing input, personal care and close coordination with the professionals already involved.
Arranging care
When care is needed quickly.
Every care arrangement begins with an assessment so we can understand the person’s needs and confirm that suitable support can be provided. We will discuss the timing with you, taking account of staffing, equipment and agreed care arrangements.

The person’s wishes
Respecting what matters.
Care considers preferred routines, privacy, culture, communication, family involvement, preferred place of care and advance-care documentation already in place.
We work with the person, their family and treating team to understand their wishes and the care arrangements already in place.
Supporting relatives
Time to be family.
A prepared care team can allow relatives to spend more time as relatives, rather than personally managing every element of care.
