In-Home Specialized Cancer Care & Assistance
Of all the conditions that can afflict us in old age, cancer is one of the most unforgiving. It can suck the strength out of every muscle in our bodies, and leave us feeling trapped with extremely limited strength and mobility.
If you’ve been taking care of your loved one alone, you may be feeling helpless or demotivated that you don’t know what to do to help them in these situations. But you’re not alone, Qualicare is here to help.
Our compassionate caregivers are skilled at providing palliative care at home for cancer patients, so that they can still enjoy the comforts and freedoms that their own living space affords them.
Best of all, we’re here to provide as much or as little support as your loved one needs. So, whether you’re looking for around-the-clock assistance or some help on an as-needed basis, we can take some of the weight off your shoulders.
At-Home Cancer Care Services
It’s challenging enough trying to provide 24/7 support for loved ones, without taking cancer appointment assistance into consideration as well.
These appointments can be long, exhausting trips, and when you’ve got other responsibilities that you need to manage, it can become challenging trying to find time to give this support to your loved one.
Not only will our helpful caregivers provide all the nursing care plans for at-home cancer treatments (i.e., meal planning, medication timing, mobility assistance, etc.), but our helpful caregivers can also ensure that clients have chemotherapy appointment assistance they need to fight back this debilitating disease.
This way, you can get back to enjoying the time that you’re spending with your loved one, instead of feeling like you ‘re constantly on duty when you’re together.
Benefits of In-Home Care for Cancer Patients
Cancer can be a difficult disease to battle, especially since without support, doctor’s may recommend early movement into hospitals to help protect their health and safety.
With Qualicare in your corner, we can arrange for 24-hour home care services for cancer patients, so that they can live in their own homes for longer, and maintain a higher quality of life while they’re there.
You can’t be awake every moment of the day, and you’ve got your own life to live as well. Thankfully, Qualicare’s compassionate caregivers are available to assist 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. This means you can enjoy the peace of mind that your loved one always has the support they need, even when life gets busy.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Where Can Qualicare Clients Access Cancer Home Care Services?
Our caregivers can provide 24-hour home care for cancer patients living at home, in nursing facilities, hospitals, or within retirement communities.
What if the Caregiver Doesn’t Have Access to Their Own Vehicle for Cancer Appointment Assistance?
Qualicare works diligently to ensure that our caregivers can provide as much support as possible for our clients, but in some cases, they may not have access to their own vehicles to provide transportation services.
In these situations, caregivers will work with family to make sure that your loved one always has the chemotherapy appointment assistance they need, and that their health, comfort, and safety are protected as they travel to and from each crucial treatment.
What if a Client’s Condition is Deteriorating Quickly?
We understand that sometimes in situations with cancer, health can take a sharp turn for the worse with little to no warning, even with the best nursing care plans for cancer treatments.
Our compassionate caregivers are prepared to provide whatever support your loved one needs, including just being nearby for emotional and moral support during the hardest days, so that they know they’re not alone.
If a client requires moving into a different living space to manage their declining condition (i.e., movement to the hospital or a residential care facility, etc.), our helpful caregivers can help clients with adjusting to these changes.
What if Clients Don’t Want Palliative Care for Cancer Patients at Home?
Qualicare knows that dealing with the realities of cancer can be daunting for anyone, and it may urge some seniors to push back against a treatment plan, as it can make them feel like they’re giving up control of their lives.
Our caregivers can offer non-obtrusive home cancer care services that focus on improving comfort and happiness as a top priority, as well as spend time talking with clients until some of the stigmas about living with cancer can be overcome.
A little bit of patience and positivity can go a long way.
