Palliative care
Palliative care is a service that benefits individuals who are facing life threatening illnesses and their families. The professionals who provide this type of care are focused on making patients and families feel comfortable during exceedingly difficult times. Palliative care is about more than the physical. It is a focus on the overall wellbeing of people through medical, emotional, and spiritual support. Our goal is to reduce the burden our patients and families feel when experiencing end-of-life conditions. Here at Nexgen Care we know making decisions when a loved one is facing the end of their life can be exceedingly difficult, but we can be there to make your experience a little easier. Palliative care is designed with the dignity and comfort of your family in mind. By providing care in the home, we can help you maintain your quality of life while still taking care of all the changes taking place.

We can provide 24-hour shift care to you or your loved one.
Our caregivers are experienced in providing the best quality palliative care for your loved one. Our caregivers can also provide care in your loved one’s home or from a nursing home if they reside in one. Our palliative care services include:
