Palliative & End of
Life Care

Palliative care is specialist care focused on providing comfort, dignity and support for people living with a life-limiting illness. It is not about hastening or postponing death, but about ensuring the best possible quality of life — managing pain and symptoms, and providing emotional and practical support for both the person and their family.

At Broxburn, palliative care means ensuring your loved one can remain in familiar surroundings, cared for by people who know them well. Our compassionate team provides round-the-clock nursing support, pain and symptom management, emotional care and practical support — always with dignity and respect at the heart of everything we do.

For many families, a care home provides the right balance of professional clinical care and a genuinely homely environment. Your loved one will be cared for by a team who know them personally, in surroundings that have become familiar — with family welcome to visit throughout the day. Every situation is different, and we are always happy to talk things through with you.

We work closely with families every step of the way, ensuring that both residents and those closest to them feel supported, heard and never alone. Our team is always available to talk, answer questions and provide reassurance — and we will keep you informed and involved in your loved one's care throughout.

Visitors are welcome throughout the day. During palliative care, we understand that being with your loved one is what matters most, and we will always do everything we can to accommodate your family.

Our fees start from £1,695 per week for self-funding residents. We also accept Local Authority placements. Please contact us or visit our Costs & Fees page and we will do our best to help.
