Yes, in many cases palliative care can help someone preserve independence by focusing on what they can still do comfortably, rather than taking over too soon. A person may want to wash part of themselves, choose their clothes, enjoy a short walk to the garden, or sit up for lunch at the table. Gentle support can make these things more manageable and less tiring. This is not about pushing someone beyond their limits; it is about helping them keep a sense of control and identity. Our carers can support routines at the right pace, offering practical help only where needed and encouraging the person to stay involved in everyday life as far as possible.
