About palliative care
Palliative care focuses on easing the pain, symptoms, and stress of a serious illness — at any stage, and alongside treatments meant to cure. The goal is simple: help your loved one feel better and live more comfortably.
Our team works with your doctors to manage symptoms, clarify goals of care, and support the whole family.
Palliative Care — questions, answered
How is palliative care different from hospice?＋
Palliative care can begin at any stage of a serious illness, even while pursuing a cure. Hospice is for when treatment is no longer the goal. Both focus on comfort and quality of life.
Can we have palliative care while still getting treatment?＋
Yes. Palliative care is provided alongside curative or life-prolonging treatment to keep your loved one comfortable.
Who provides it?＋
A team that can include nurses, aides, social workers, and your physician, coordinated around your loved one's needs.
