Palliative Care
Palliative care is often recommended by physicians when a patient is diagnosed with a serious, chronic, or life-threatening illness. This type of care is focused on enhancing the quality of life for patients by helping them manage their symptoms and navigate the emotional, physical, and practical challenges that come with their diagnosis. It is not just about treating the illness; it’s about supporting the whole person.
