In addition, other advocates, whether for spiritual support or complementary approaches to care, join the team to adequately meet all the individuals needs. All the care and services provided reflect the values and philosophy of La Maison. Care and services are organized to respect the privacy of family members. The family can personalize their loved one’s room with pictures, decor and other memorabilia and sleep there if they wish.
The family
Service available for family members
La Maison considers the family as members of the caregiving team. They are the significant people the patients have chosen to be near them. With them being welcomed in a family-style living environment, their needs, as they relate to the pending loss of a loved one, are integrated into the caregiving program and are generously met by the interdisciplinary team.
The services given are organized to respect the privacy of family members, for whom it is possible to personalize their loved one’s room and sleep there if they wish. They are supported and encouraged to take part in the caregiving and aid of their loved ones in their final days, according to their capacity and the latter’s wishes.
