58 2.7.1 Supporting Family & LTC Staff
Considerations for Supporting Family & LTC Staff:
- Preparation and communication for end of life
- Engaging and supporting staff and leadership in the education and delivery of palliative care
- Ensure resources are in place to support the resident at end-of-life
Philosophy of palliative care is rooted in maximizing a person’s:
- Quality of life by effective symptoms control
- Psychological and spiritual support, in a socially meaningful way,
- While truly allowing someone to be themselves at a difficult time
Palliative care is an approach that aims to reduce suffering and improve the quality of life for people who are living with life-limiting illness through the provision of:
- Pain and symptom management;
- Psychological, social, emotional, spiritual, and practical support; and
- Support for caregivers during the illness and after the death of the person they are caring for[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]
