The goal is not a good death. The goal is a good life—all the way to the very end.

Atul Gawande, M.D., MPH

A loved one’s illness can quickly turn a family’s life upside down when it comes to care. Watching someone cope with pain, disability, and deteriorating health is often overwhelming, especially if, as their primary caregiver, you’re responsible for their physical and emotional well-being. This is where LivHealth can offer immense benefits.

At LivHealth, we believe those nearing the end of life deserve to live with dignity and respect, in the comfort of familiar surroundings. We believe healthcare should be calming, tranquil, meditative, alleviating, reassuring, softening, and remedying.

Let us treat your loved one like family. Call us directly at 496-1214

THE HEALING TOUCH

We believe in the power of the healing touch.

At LivMedical, we support senior wellness. We aim to provide our patients with comprehensive care, that is why we are leading the way in infusing complementary medicine treatments with traditional medicine in Trinidad.

Senior citizens tend to be isolated and can lack the opportunity for physical contact and comfort. Physical touch is easily overlooked in the context of treating a serious medical problem, but it has a profound impact on the patient’s wellbeing. Something as simple as a kind and attentive touch makes a world of difference. Massage therapy provides a type of healing, relief, and relaxation for elderly patients to which medical treatments cannot compare. It helps alleviate pain, anxiety, stress, and depression. Massage therapy induces a relaxation response in the body, which triggers the release of serotonin in the brain. This chemical impacts thoughts and emotion, creating a sense of peace and a greater ability to cope with the uncertainty that lies ahead.

We have combined massage therapy, hair care, a hot towel bath and aromatherapy into package to offer a personalized wellness treatment that provides that healing touch.

We offer immobile elders the chance to enjoy the health benefits of self-care – in the convenience of their home. Our mobile spa was specifically developed to meet the unique needs of seniors; including those limited in mobility, and people with dementia or Alzheimer’s.

We strive to make every day the best day possible.

HOSPICE DOULA

To many people, the word “doula” refers to a childbirth coach. But doulas aren’t only available for when life begins — they can help when life ends too. An end-of-life doula is a nonmedical professional trained to care for a terminally ill person’s physical, emotional, and spiritual needs during the death process.
