Instead, we can provide one-to-one Palliative Care in your own home with a Consultus Live-in Nurse. What Is Palliative Care? Palliative Care, or end-of-life Care, is a speciality nursing practice that provides one-to-one patient care for those who are suffering from a life-limiting illness. Whether the diagnosis is advanced cancer, motor neurone disease, end-stage Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, renal failure, congestive heart failure or another life-threatening or terminal illness, our Nurses provide continuous one-to-one compassionate support. What Does Palliative Care Include? At Consultus, we understand that older people prefer the comfort and independence that comes from receiving social care in their own home, rather than a nursing home or hospital. That is why we provide a Live-in Palliative Nursing service.
