What is Palliative Care?
Palliative care is a comprehensive care program focused on providing relief from the symptoms and stress of serious illnesses. Our Palliative team, made of specially-trained doctors, NPs, nurses, and other disciplines- can help you and your loved ones navigate and cope with the difficult experience. Our best-in-class palliative care is integral in providing comfort in difficult situations such as extreme or end-of-life illnesses.
Palliative Care vs. Hospice Care
Palliative care is very different from Hospice Care: it’s a program for a much more broad range of patients. It is based on the needs of the patient, regardless of your age, stage, or prognosis. Palliative care or palliative home care can be a great additional layer upon your primary treatment plan so you are as supported as possible in your treatment, comfort, and quality of life.
