  11. Providing Quality End of Life Care at Schlegel Villages

  12. The Core of Schlegel Villages Our mission is to provide holistic health care in a home environment, located within an internal neighbourhood design that promotes a caring community with an emphasis on maintaining and promoting optimum quality of life for all residents.

  13. End of Life Care and Support • For our resident’s with palliative and/or end of life needs, comfort rather than a cure, is our focus. • All care and support respects the resident’s individual wishes. • The resident and/or Power of Attorney (POA) has the right to accept or decline treatment or our support. “ You matter because you are you. You matter up to the last moment of your life, and we will do all we can, not only to help you die peacefully, but also to live until you die” - Dame Cicely Saunders, pioneer of the modern Hospice movement (2005)

  14. Terminology • ‘ Palliative Care ’ may be used to describe care for a resident who is unlikely to live beyond a 12 month period of time. • ‘ End of Life Care ’ may be used to describe care for a resident who is unlikely to live beyond a 3 month period of time.

  15. Goals of End of Life Care • To promote comfort and dignity during Palliative/End of Life care. • To provide comfort without implementing acute care measures. • To alleviate the fear of dying by providing resident-centered holistic care with a multi-disciplinary approach. • To involve the resident, family, or significant others in the process of planning care which incorporates their preferences and needs, assessment and decision-making.

  16. Palliative Care • Multi-disciplinary team approach • Programming • Assessing • Educating • Palliative Care Committee Butterfly: • symbolizes a transformation that cannot be reversed • a butterfly magnet on the door frame indicates a resident is palliative • a butterfly sticker may be used on the resident’s chart

  17. End of Life Care • Multi-disciplinary team approach • Palliative cart • Roll away bed • Privacy banner • Written resources for family • Multi-faith resources • Outside resources as needed Privacy Banner

  18. After Resident’s Passing • Support for the family, residents and team members • Dignity Walk and Honour Guard • Table setting in honour of resident • Bedside blessing service and hand blessing • Memorial Service

  19. Our Tradition – Dignity Blanket • The Dignity Blanket is draped over the deceased resident as they are taken by the funeral directors to the waiting car • It is the last act of respect & comfort - brings great comfort to grieving family members, team Residents and team members, and other members create the Dignity Blanket together residents

  20. Dignity Blanket - continued • The Dignity blanket is kept where it is always accessible to team members – day and night (Chapel). • Unless family request otherwise, resident’s are always escorted through the front entrance doors by the funeral directors, the team members, and other residents.
