Palliative Care Services
Palliative care services are provided to patients who are at the end of life. The main goal of palliative care is to relieve physical, emotional, and spiritual suffering caused by illness or disability. These services may include pain management, symptom relief, communication support, and bereavement support.
Palliative care is an excellent way to alleviate pain and improve quality of life in people who are dying. It can be especially valuable for people with cancer, for whom the prospect of death is never far away. Palliative care can also help people with other chronic illnesses like arthritis or heart disease who have been diagnosed with a life-limiting condition.
Another benefit of palliative care is that it can help people feel more comfortable in their final months or weeks. It gives them the chance to prepare for their death as opposed to being caught off guard by it.
