Palliative Care

Palliative care is a specialized approach to providing relief from symptoms, pain, and stress of serious illnesses, improving the quality of life for patients and their families. It is appropriate at any stage of illness and can be provided alongside curative treatments. Unlike end-of-life care, which is specifically for those nearing death, palliative care is about enhancing comfort and support regardless of prognosis, emphasizing patient-centered care throughout the treatment journey.
