What is palliative care?

Palliative care provides comfort and support to patients with advanced illness and their families. The goal is to improve the quality of life for patients by addressing each patient’s physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual needs. Palliative care involves a team-oriented approach to deliver expert medical care, manage pain, and support emotional and spiritual needs expressly tailored to the patient’s needs and wishes. The comfort provided through our palliative care services may begin as early as your initial diagnosis and continue through your treatment.
