Oakford Manor End of Life Care
The Oakford Team are dedicated to ensuring that all our residents experience a full life whilst in our care and that, when the time arrives; we will help them to die peacefully in a manner in which they and their family have informed us is ‘the individuals’ choice’.
Decisions are often made in a crisis, with unnecessary hospitalisation and undignified and often unwanted interventions being performed.
With sensitive advanced care planning, individualised approaches, the end of life can be tailored to the preferences and needs of the person, including supporting their loved ones.
As Dame Cicely Saunders once said “You matter because you are you, and you matter to the end of your life, we will do all we can not only to help you die peacefully, but to also live until you die”
At Oakford Manor we pride ourselves on the care & support we provide, not only to those in our care but extended to family and friends.
We see our role as a partnership, supporting and maintaining meaningful relationships to enrich the quality of life of everyone.
We have an End of Life champion- who supports all our staff- Julia Boswell; and we are aiming for all our staff to be fully trained in the specialised acre needed at the End of Life.
