Palliative Care in Leicester
When someone you love is facing a serious illness, being at home matters. Familiar surroundings, a favourite chair by the window, the quiet comfort of knowing where everything is. These small things carry real weight when time feels precious. That’s why we provide palliative care at home across Leicester, from Clarendon Park and Knighton to Oadby, Evington, Beaumont Leys and the surrounding areas.

What does Palliative Care mean?
Palliative home care is specialist support for people living with a serious or life-limiting illness. It’s about making each day as comfortable and meaningful as possible, right in the place they know best: home.
Rather than focusing on a cure, the care looks after the whole person, their family and everyone around them. It covers four key areas:
What Palliative Care Includes:
24/7 Symptom Management
Pain doesn’t keep to office hours, and neither do we. Your carer will provide you with the best physical care services according to your personal support plan whilst maintaining your dignity and seeing to it that your choices and wishes are realised.
Personal Care and Daily Support
Small tasks feel harder when you’re unwell. We help with washing, dressing, toileting and mobility, always at your loved one’s pace. Meal preparation and medication prompts keep daily life ticking over gently.
Overnight and Night Care
Nights can feel long when you’re worried. Our overnight carers stay alert through the small hours, managing any symptoms that arise and offering reassurance. You get proper sleep knowing someone trusted is there.
Emotional Support and Companionship
Serious illness touches more than the body. We offer calm company, a listening ear and gentle conversation for those who want it.
Family Support
Sova Healthcare also offers loss and bereavement support services for you and your loved ones who are struggling to come to terms with losing a loved one.
