Palliative Care
Our Commitment to Care
Palliative care is a specialized form of medical care focused on improving the quality of life for individuals facing serious illnesses, like cancer. It addresses not only physical symptoms, but also emotional, social, and spiritual needs, ensuring support for both patients and their families. Delivered by our compassionate team of cancer care specialists, palliative care is provided alongside curative treatments or as the primary form of care, helping patients find comfort, dignity, and peace through challenging times.
What Makes Palliative Care Different
Unlike hospice, which is offered to patients during the final phases of their disease, palliative care can be provided throughout all stages of cancer. This type of care concentrates on the overall impact of cancer on the individual—focusing on care and support that helps relieve symptoms and stress throughout the process.1
