What is Palliative Care?

Palliative care encompasses a range of services aimed at providing comfort and support to individuals facing serious illnesses. Its primary focus is on alleviating pain, managing symptoms, and addressing the emotional, social, and spiritual needs of patients. This type of service can be delivered in various settings hospitals, hospices, or at home—depending on the patient’s wishes.

These services are vital for enhancing quality of life, especially in terminal or end-of-life situations. Nurses and caregivers play a crucial role in delivering palliative services, covering a wide array of conditions, including cancer, heart disease, chronic respiratory diseases, neurological disorders, severe injuries, and other acute illnesses.

While both palliative care at home and hospice services focus on improving quality of life and providing support, they differ in timing and intent. Palliative care can begin at any point during a serious illness and can be offered alongside curative treatments. In contrast, hospice care is specifically intended for individuals in the final stages of life when curative options are no longer pursued.
