Palliative Care
Who is it for?
Palliative care at Ridgegate Home is designed for individuals with life-limiting illnesses who need specialist support focused on comfort, dignity and quality of life rather than curative treatment. This may include those with advanced cancer, heart disease, respiratory conditions, or other serious progressive illnesses.
Our palliative care provides pain and symptom management, emotional and spiritual support, and assistance with daily living activities in a calm, compassionate environment. We work closely with healthcare professionals, hospice services, and family members to ensure comprehensive, coordinated care.
Our smaller community of up to 23 residents ensures a peaceful atmosphere where your loved one receives attentive, personalised care from our dedicated team who have time to truly understand and respond to individual needs.

Palliative Care
Our Approach
Our care teams work closely with healthcare professionals to provide person-centred palliative care that prioritises comfort, dignity and quality of life. We focus on managing pain and symptoms effectively, while supporting emotional and spiritual wellbeing.
Each resident receives a personalised care plan developed in consultation with them, their family, and healthcare professionals. This plan addresses physical comfort, emotional support, spiritual needs, and end-of-life wishes, ensuring care is delivered with sensitivity and respect.
We provide a peaceful, comfortable environment in our beautiful period property with quiet lounges, accessible gardens, and private spaces for family visits. Our team is available 24 hours a day to provide support, companionship and care whenever needed.
Families are welcome to visit at any time, and we encourage involvement in care as much as desired. We understand this is a difficult journey, and we're here to support both residents and their loved ones with compassion and understanding.
