What is Palliative Care?

Palliative care focuses on alleviating the symptoms and stress associated with chronic or life-limiting illnesses, including cancer, advanced heart disease, lung disease, or neurological conditions. It is not limited to end-of-life care; it can be provided alongside curative treatments to improve overall patient outcomes.

Emotional and Psychological Support: Addressing anxiety, depression, and stress through counseling and therapy.
Enhanced Communication: Helping patients and families make informed decisions about treatment options and care goals.
Support for Caregivers: Offering guidance and respite to those caring for their loved ones.

Critical Components of Palliative Care

Physical Care: Managing pain and other distressing symptoms to ensure comfort.

Spiritual and Social Care: Addressing spiritual or existential concerns while supporting social connections and relationships.
Coordination of Care: Ensuring seamless communication between medical teams and other caregivers to deliver holistic support.
