What is Palliative Care?
Palliative Care is a specialized form of medical care that focuses on relieving the symptoms, stress, and suffering of individuals who are nearing death or living with serious illnesses, such as cancer, heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), kidney disease, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Its goal is to improve the quality of life for both patients and their families, regardless of the prognosis. Palliative Care is from diagnosis to natural end and never seeks to hasten death.
Holistic approach
Palliative Care is a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach that addresses the physical, psychological, social, and spiritual needs of patients with serious illnesses, aiming to improve their quality of life.
Multi-disciplinary team
Palliative Care involves a team of healthcare professionals, including doctors, nurses, social workers, counsellors, chaplains, and other specialists, working together to address the complex needs of patients and families.
Early integration
Palliative Care can be introduced at any stage of illness, not just at the end of life, and can be integrated with curative or life-prolonging treatments, aiming to improve overall care and outcomes.
Patient-centred care
Palliative Care is tailored to each individual’s unique needs, preferences, and values, involving open communication and collaboration with patients, families, and healthcare providers.
Symptom management
Palliative Care focuses on preventing or treating symptoms and side effects of disease and treatment, such as pain, nausea, vomiting, and distress, to alleviate suffering and improve comfort.
Focus on quality of life
The ultimate goal of palliative care is to improve the quality of life for patients and their families, addressing not only physical symptoms but also emotional, social, practical, and spiritual concerns, enabling them to live as fully and comfortably as possible.
