Palliative Care and Hospice Care
Expert medical assistance for patients with life-threatening illnesses, such as cancer or heart failure, is known as palliative care. In addition to treatment meant to cure their serious illness, patients in palliative care may also receive medical assistance for their symptoms. By concentrating on the patient's and their family's quality of life, palliative care is intended to supplement existing medical treatment.
Anyone suffering from a life-threatening illness, such as heart failure, cancer, COVID-19, dementia, paralysis agitans, and many more, may find support through palliative care. Palliative care is most effectively given shortly after a diagnosis and is frequently beneficial at any stage of illness.
