The Challenge
- Your loved one is assessed as requiring Palliative-care
- Compassionate care is required at short notice
- Palliative-care may require some nursing as well as personal care
- You want your loved one to be cared for with dignity and comfort in their own home
How Can We Assist?
- Provide a small team of Companions who will provide palliative-care at home
- You determine the hours you require either as a planned roster or at short notice
- Your Companion will have a mature personality with life experience that delivers trusted low-key home care at a stressful time for your family and friends
Next Steps
- Contact us for a preliminary chat and register your care request
- TGCA works with a number of hospices and has a track record in effectively providing palliative care
- Your service delivery manager will coordinate with you a time to meet and complete a palliative-care plan
- Your Companion is assigned and care delivery commences with a focus on maintaining dignity and comfort
Additional Information

- Typical referrals for this service are made by Hospice nurses or community based Social Workers
- We work alongside the hospice nurses and other funded agencies
- Engage TGCA to deliver as much or as little as you require
- Services can stop / re-start at any point in time as required by you
Reviews
"Thank you so much for your lovely message.
It is a very sad time for us now. Losing such a beloved family member is a completely integral part of life and nature ....but so hard to bear all the same.
Kirsty has been an incredible support for Dad. Such a wise, insightful and empathetic lady. She has been such an important part of Dad’s quality of life in the past few months - keeping up his spirits and showing him how he can participate, create, communicate and reflect in himself. I could see it has helped him immeasurably to navigate his way around the cruel handicaps that have been imposed on him by Alzheimer’s dementia. I can’t believe how lucky we were to find her and we have you to thank for that too, Jenny. You can be proud of the work you do helping people out."

You want a friendly, skilled and consistent Support worker in the comfort of your own space? Engage a TGCA support professional. Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
