Home Care Assistance

Palliative Care

Palliative care is best at home. When a loved one reaches the stage where curative treatment is no longer possible, a Home Care Assistance Carer can improve their end-of-life experience and help keep them in their familiar, home environment.

  • Hourly Care
  • Hospital to Home
  • Specialised Care

We help make those final days comfortable

By providing continuous, one-on-one Palliative care at home, our skilled Carers provide support and companionship, ensuring optimal comfort and dignity during final stages, while bringing peace of mind and respite for the family.

Keeping Comfortable

One-on-one companionship in the familiar environment of the home helps bring essential comfort and peace to an individual in this stage of life.

Turning to Prevent Bed Sores

Close attention to personal care is of utmost importance. Our Carers manage frequent bed turning to minimise bed sores and ensure comfort is achieved as much as possible.

Providing Companionship

Simply having someone there with your loved one around-the-clock, or on an as-needed basis, provides much needed comfort and compassion.

Preparing Meals

It’s common that one’s appetite will decrease, so it’s important to maintain the nutritional value of the food your loved one will consume. Our Carers are trained to prepare healthy meals based on the individuals needs and preferences.

Maintaining Personal Hygiene

We are committed to a dignified palliative experience in which we help people stay clean, groomed and maintain their hygiene.

Mediating Depression

Palliative patients can often feel, and become depressed or even experience feelings of abandonment. Our Carers know how to provide the emotional support needed at this time.

Providing Status Updates

Our Carers support the family and any medical team involved by providing status updates on the individuals condition.

Support for the Family after their Loved One Passes

Our Carers and Palliative Care team are experienced in providing appropriate support and resources to families after their loved one passes.

Choosing the right Home Care Provider
Not all home care business are alike. Some may not offer all the services and support you require, so its important to understand who and what is best for you and your loved one. Our Home Care Company Checklist will assist with due diligence and selecting the right care requirements

DEDICATED TO AGEING WELL
Our family has benefited from the excellent support and services from David, Meg and the team at Home Care Assistance North Coast for the past couple of years. I had an extensive list of questions... when we were deciding which provider to go with. David answered promptly, and impressed me with his empathy, accessibility (available after hours, weekends), and ability to tailor a package to meet our particular needs. Add to that the best value for package dollars, and it was an easy decision to go with HCA North Coast.The staff employed by HCA North Coast have been excellent. David was able to source staff who were a good match for my Dad’s personality. As our needs evolved, it was easy to change any aspect of the care provided.I am very happy to recommend Home Care Assistance North Coast, for anyone looking for quality care for their loved one.read more
Dave and the team go above and beyond to ensure your loved one receives the best possible care
I can't thank the team at Home Care Assistance North Coast enough for their help with my Dad. David led us through the Home Care Package details with honesty and integrity, and they were able to... organise a lawn mowing service as well as a carer to visit Dad.My only regret is that we didn't get to spend more time with the team as Dad has now moved into an Aged Care Facility. Thank you again.read more
The whole team at Home Care Assist are amazing. I can't begin to tell you how much help Geoff Doherty was to me when I was trying to navigate the Aged Care process. The Coffs Harbour team led by... Rachael, who is a wonderful caring and helpful manager, is an absolute gem. My every need is taken into consideration and the staff employed to do the actual caring/cleaning are second to none. Nothing is too much trouble. I need Physio and Hydrotherapy services and Emily, who is also a absolute gem always pays the providers promptly and they are very grateful for that. I would highly recommend this service to anyone looking for Caring, Compassionate, timely and reliable care.read more
I looked long and thoroughly before I selected a care provider for my husband who has dementia. Being with Home Care Assistance for almost a year, has confirmed all my expectations. And more.As a... carer I feel very supported by David and Meg. They are always available by phone or email, and this means a lot. But perhaps the best quality of their organisation is the high calibre and personalised choice of all the care givers they have provided for us - whether it be someone to spend time with my husband or someone to slash our overgrown yard.I have no hesitation in recommending Home Care Assistance - and, indeed, have already done so.Pamela Payneread more
I switched my Father’s Homecare package from a large provider to HCA and I’m so glad I did. From the very first contact I was struck by the degree of professionalism, expertise and friendliness from... all I came in contact with. The high standard of care and calibre of the care staff was evident from the beginning and carried right through. Communication was always responsive and timely and nothing was too much trouble. The values of the company and management team have filtered right through to the staff and you feel you are in the company of family who really care, which is very comforting. I have no hesitation in recommending the services of HCA for exemplary care of the elderly in their home.read more
So blessed. Such a wonderful team to take care of me, keeping my life simple and enabling the very best I could wish for. Thank you, Meg and Dave!
In sporting circles these days there is an expression used to describe why athletes and teams are supreme champions, it is “they do the one-percenters”. To me this is what separates HCA from the... other providers I have experienced; they are always cheery when you telephone, they respond with some alacrity to an email, incredibly flexible re scheduling and most importantly from the very first visit by a staff member you are made to feel part of their family.read more
Our family appointed HCA to assist with care for our father. It turned out to be an excellent appointment.The management and staff were excellent and the carers were outstanding.We highly recommend... HCA to any prospective applicants.We would be happy to field direct enquires about the service. HCA have our detailsread more
Home Care Assistance North Coast has really put the CARE back into my aged care experience for my mother.Right from the beginning communication with management (David and Meg) has been excellent... with all of my requests and questions answered patiently, promptly and cheerfully.Due to Home Care Assistance's policy of tender care my mother has had hand massages, foot baths and massages, diversional therapy involving music and art, poetry and encouraging Mum to interact positively.Domestic tasks are attended to cheerfully.Blue ribbon service and red carpet treatment for their valued clients. Highly recommended!read more
The carers who looked after my elderly mother were without exception highly motivated, caring and compassionate. Not only was Mum looked after supremely well, she was provided with wonderful... companionship, a level of independence that would have been impossible without the help of her special carers, and a lot of fun. It is difficult to put into words how much this meant to her entire family! Keep up the good work.read more
We have the highest praise for HCA as an organisation, and deep gratitude and respect for the people involved - all the way from Dave & Meg at the top right through office staff and on to the... wonderful warm carers who have meant so much to our mother over the last three years.

Thank you HCA, for all that you've done for Mum - and for us by extension.read more
