Home care across the Gold Coast

Gentle palliative care support at home

We help with everyday comfort, personal care and company at home, working alongside your palliative care team, GP and community nurses. Families get time to rest, too.

Palliative Care

Comfort and company in the place you know best

Palliative care is sometimes called hospice care. For many people, it means being able to stay at home, among familiar things and familiar faces. Inspiring Homecare carers help make that possible. We look after the everyday comforts, such as a warm wash, fresh sheets, a favourite meal or simply sitting together, so the person can rest and the home stays calm.

We are not a medical service. Your palliative care team, GP and community nurses look after symptoms, medicines and clinical decisions. We work alongside them, follow the care plan they set, and let the family know if we notice any changes. Visits move at the person's pace, and we are guided by what matters to them each day.

Support for the whole family

You don't have to carry this on your own

Caring for someone near the end of life is tiring, and it can be lonely. Our carers can take over some of the daily tasks across the Gold Coast, so partners, sons and daughters can be family again rather than full-time carers. A few hours of respite, a night of proper sleep or time to see friends can make a real difference.

Quiet, steady help each visit

We try to send the same small group of carers, so your family member sees faces they know. Our carers keep their voices soft and their hands gentle, and they ask before they help. They follow the routines and wishes your family shares with us, and the guidance from the palliative care team. Some days the most useful thing is a chat, a hand to hold or a quiet room, and that is fine too.

Our carers can help with:

  • Gentle help with showering, sponge baths in bed and freshening up
  • Mouth care, hair care and changing into clean clothes
  • Toileting and continence support, handled quietly and with respect
  • Changing bed linen, washing and keeping the house tidy
  • Simple meals, drinks and snacks the person feels like having
  • Sitting with your family member so you can rest, sleep or go out
