At Faircape Health Institute, we provide specialised, compassionate care for people nearing the end of their life, or in the advanced stage of a terminal illness. End-of-life care involves a range of possible decisions, including patients’ rights and choice of medical interventions. We offer care and ensure needs are met in 4 vital areas – physical comfort, mental and emotional needs, spiritual support, and practical tasks.
Palliative care, administered at Faircape Health, optimises comfort and quality of life. This is achieved through the specialised care of palliative physicians with prescribed treatments and interventions. Access to our Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) further enhances the scope of our palliative care services and care by ensuring a holistic approach. Furthermore, pastoral care and counselling support is available should it be required.
Our MDT approaches palliative care with the support of social workers who assess and assist to ensure the best decisions are made – ethically, medically, and financially. The core function of the MDT in this environment brings the full expertise of a diverse group of healthcare professionals to bear such that the patient is treated as comprehensively as possible.
