Are You Looking For Palliative Care at Home In London?

Our team of palliative home care assistants is available to support your loved one in the place they feel most comfortable, their own home.

Palliative care at home provides specialised support to improve the quality of life of people with serious or terminal illnesses. Specialist palliative carers can emotionally support your loved one and help manage their pain in the comfort of their home.  Many families choose this person-centred care because it allows their loved ones to remain close, surrounded by cherished memories and personal belongings.

Most people, when faced with a life-limiting illness or terminal diagnosis, would prefer to remain in their own home. Our palliative care team works closely with district nurses, community nurses, and other healthcare professionals to enable this, delivering personalised and compassionate care in the home. We also coordinate with local hospices and family members to create a care plan that fits your loved one’s unique care needs and preferences.

Our specialist palliative care services can begin at any stage of illness and alongside treatments like chemotherapy. Support can last weeks, months, or years, depending on the person’s condition. The goal is to help people feel supported, comfortable, and respected while maintaining control of their daily routines.

If you’re ready to arrange palliative care, our team can guide you through every step. We’ll help you understand your options for life care and palliative care services at home, including symptom control, specialist support, and practical and emotional support. Call us today to speak with a care specialist and start organising a bespoke palliative care at home package for your family.

Palliative Care at Home

The best palliative care at home helps people live comfortably and with dignity, whether they are managing a life-limiting condition or receiving end-of-life care. Our palliative care service offers both practical and emotional support so your loved one can enjoy peace of mind and a better quality of life.

It can be an emotional and challenging time when your loved one begins palliative care at home. Our expertly trained carers provide practical and emotional support to help both the patient and their family members navigate this transition.

Our palliative carers can assist with personal care, preparing meals, and symptom management, including pain relief. We focus on maintaining your loved one’s comfort and helping them remain pain-free in their familiar surroundings.

We take a holistic approach, addressing not only physical symptoms but also emotional and spiritual needs. Our compassionate carers are there to offer companionship, share memories, or listen to favourite tunes, simple, meaningful moments that make each day brighter.

What to Expect with Our Palliative Care Service

Continuity of Care

We’ll organise a small team of dedicated palliative carers to support your loved one. They’ll get to know their routine, preferences, and comfort needs, providing the one-to-one support that builds familiarity and trust. This personalised approach can improve the quality of life for both the patient and their family. Our healthcare team also works closely with community nurses, district nurses, and other healthcare professionals to ensure consistent, high-quality care every step of the way.

Stay at Home

With our palliative care in the home service, your loved one receives support in a safe and peaceful environment. Being in a familiar space offers reassurance and protects patients’  emotional well-being. Home-based palliative care also gives people freedom to choose their daily routines and make decisions about their own care, without sacrificing the specialist support of compassionate carers. This personalised care reduces the need for hospital admissions and helps patients remain comfortable in their own homes during their final months.

Round-the-Clock Care

Our end-of-life care at home offers reassurance when it matters most. As your loved one’s health changes, our team can provide support day and night. Carers familiar with your loved one, can detect subtle shifts in their condition and communicate with health professionals promptly.  With training in pain management and symptom relief, they can help your loved one remain as pain-free and comfortable as possible. Our team also works with outside healthcare professionals and specialist care providers to coordinate services smoothly.

Flexible Visiting Times

Palliative care at home enables family members to stay involved, which often brings their loved one comfort and puts family members’ worries at ease. With at-home care, there are no visiting hour restrictions. Family and friends can spend as much time as they wish with their loved one, creating invaluable memories.

What to expect with our palliative care service

Continuity of care

Rather than receiving care from whoever is available at the time, at Tiggo Care, we’ll assign the same small team of two or three carers to your loved one, who’ll understand their preferences, know their routine and take care of their needs. They’ll form a bond with your loved one, which will help to boost their well-being and overall quality of life.

Stay at home

Hospitals are often chaotic and confusing environments, which can add to the anxiety and overwhelm that many patients and their families feel. Our end-of-life care team will support and care for your loved one in their own home, surrounded by the things they love and all that is familiar to them so that they spend their final weeks and months in a place where they feel safe, comfortable and at ease.

Round the clock care

As your loved one’s health starts to deteriorate, rest assured our end-of-life carers will be on hand to notice and respond to changes in their condition, however subtle. They’ll react quickly and calmly to any emergency and ensure that you are notified straight away.

Flexible visiting times

With your loved one receiving care at home, should you wish to drop in and see how they are, you won’t be constrained by strict visiting times. Unlike hospitals, you’ll be able to visit your loved one whenever you would like and for as long as you would like.

A Day In The Life With Anastasia

Headshot of a care assistant

Supporting palliative care patients gives me purpose as I bring comfort during their final months. Each day varies—helping manage pain, preparing meals, or supporting families emotionally. I spend time listening, sharing music or memories to lift well-being. Working closely with healthcare professionals, I follow care plans to maintain comfort and dignity. My goal is to help people feel calm, relaxed, and peaceful at home. It’s a privilege to be part of such meaningful moments.

More reasons to choose Tiggo Care

Our Care packages are bespoke

At Tiggo Care we understand how precious your loved one is to you and how unique they are. We also appreciate how overwhelming it can be to research and source the most suitable type of care.

We fundamentally believe that there is no ‘one size fits all’ care package and like to work with you and your loved one to understand your specific requirements. We’ll then create a tailored care package and match your relative with their ideal carer.

We're fully regulated

Unlike some other care providers, we are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission. This means we are regularly inspected, rated and audited to ensure we are a safe, effective, caring, responsive and well led organisation, committed to delivering the best possible care.

We’re also proud members of the Homecare Association, the U.K’s membership body for home care providers, which holds organisations to a high set of standards and requests them to abide by a strict code of practice

Our carers are fully vetted & trained

At Tiggo Care, all of our carers undergo a rigorous recruitment and induction process. They are fully vetted and background checked, with all references followed up. Our carers undertake their training on the best eLearning system currently available within the UK care market, ensuring they are well placed to deliver the best possible service. Specialist training courses such as moving and handling, medications and basic life support are also completed by our carers face to face, as we feel these courses are more effective when delivered in person.
