End of Life Pathway
Support to stay at home with dignity, comfort, and love
Facing this stage of life, whether for yourself or someone you love, takes incredible courage. We understand how emotional and overwhelming these moments can feel.
The End-of-Life Pathway is the government’s new program (starting from 1 November 2025) and it’s been thoughtfully designed to give you, or your loved one, the support needed to stay at home, surrounded by comfort, care, and familiar faces.
It’s about honouring wishes, supporting dignity, and making sure that every moment is lived with respect, choice, and a care team that walks quietly beside you. Never intrusive, but always there when needed. Because at Feros Care, we believe that every person’s final journey should feel truly theirs with comfort, compassion, and love.
So, what is the End-of-Life Pathway?
The End-of-Life Pathway offers extra support — up to $25,000 of funding over 3 months — to help you, or the person you love, stay at home when time matters most.
If you or your loved one has been told there may be less than three months to live, this funding helps make it possible to remain in the place that feels safest, most familiar, and most comforting — your own home.
It’s personalised, compassionate support, carefully matched to what’s needed, when it’s needed. No pressure. No rushing. Just thoughtful care that fits gently around your life, your wishes, and your family.
What kind of help could I get?
Every person’s wishes are different, and that’s exactly how the End-of-Life Pathway is designed: around you. The types of support available could include:
- Nursing and palliative care to manage comfort, symptoms, and changing needs with skill and compassion.
- Personal care to help you feel clean, comfortable, and cared for in a way that honours your dignity.
- Emotional and social support — not just for you, but for your family too, because everyone’s wellbeing matters.
- Essential equipment like beds, wheelchairs, or aids to make daily life simpler, safer, and less stressful.
- Support for carers, offering a helping hand and a listening ear to those walking this journey alongside you.
It’s care that wraps softly around you and your loved ones offering reassurance, peace of mind, and the gentle support you need, without ever losing sight of what matters most: your wishes, your comfort, and your dignity.
