A carer and resident

Palliative Care

At our care home in Canterbury, we’ve established a dedicated palliative care service. This service is designed to provide assistance to both the residents and their families who are undergoing this specialised form of care.

Our devoted team of skilled carers is committed to ensuring the wellbeing of all individuals here at Lark View Care Home. For those residents who are receiving palliative care, our priority is to ensure their utmost comfort and support during this time.

What is Palliative Care?

Palliative care, which is often referred to as end-of-life care, is a specialised service intended for individuals either facing a terminal illness or approaching the final stages of their lives due to natural decline.

Our primary objective is to establish a comforting environment for those experiencing palliative care. Our care experts are dedicated to upholding our residents’ dignity and fulfilling their wishes while providing unwavering support.
