‘One of the most challenging aspects of palliative care is discussing what lies ahead, but it’s essential not to avoid it.’

Here are a few gentle tips that may help:
🗣️ Try using ‘I wish statements’ to express yourself
🙋‍♀️ Ask first before starting the conversation
👂 Actively listen and validate your loved one
📚 Don’t be afraid to access more resources for help

These conversations aren’t always easy, but you don’t have to navigate them alone.

We might be a little late to the party, but we couldn't let this spooktacular effort go unnoticed! 🎃

Last week, our team got into the Halloween spirit in spectacular fashion. A massive thank you to the incredible Margaret, who led the charge and inspired everyone to go all out with their fantastic costumes.

From our ghoulishly good window display to the creepy creativity in the office, the energy was absolutely electric! It’s moments like these, filled with teamwork and a bit of fun, that truly make our company a special place.

We hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween!

As we observe Remembrance Day, our thoughts turn with gratitude to the brave individuals who made the ultimate sacrifice for our peace and freedom.

This week, you'll spot a poignant display in our window: a soldier standing amongst poppies. We have placed this here as a small, heartfelt tribute to honour their memory.

We know that for many of our clients and their families across Mid West Essex, this isn't just a page in a history book. For a generation who were children during the war, these memories are personal and deeply felt. We remember the fathers, brothers, mothers, and sisters who did not return home.

Today, and every day, we stand with you in remembrance. We are here not just to provide care, but to listen, to support, and to honour the stories and the resilience that define your generation.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old. We will remember them.

Winter often brings extra challenges ❄️🧣

From seasonal illnesses like flu and COVID to the added risks of slips, trips, and loneliness during colder, darker days.

Whether it’s help with daily routines, keeping warm, or simply having someone to check in, our care workers make a real difference.

Together, we can face the season with confidence. 🌟

💊 Supporting long-term condition management
🏠 Adapting care to real needs at home

It’s not uncommon for loved ones (particularly men) to resist care. This is often because they want to stay independent, or they don’t want to “be a burden”. ❤️‍🩹

Accepting care, however, isn’t about losing control. It’s about maintaining quality of life, dignity, and independence for longer. 💪💛

We focus on building trust, respecting preferences, and empowering clients to feel heard and supported. Sometimes, the first step is just an honest conversation. 🗣️
