# Palliative Care

Comfort-focused care that supports quality of life

## About This Service

Palliative care is specialized medical care focused on providing relief from the symptoms, pain, and stress of serious illness. Unlike hospice care, palliative care can be provided at any stage of illness and alongside curative or active treatment. Our team works to improve comfort and quality of life for patients and their families.

#### Who It Helps

Palliative care may benefit patients with cancer, heart failure, COPD, kidney disease, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or any serious illness that causes significant symptoms or affects quality of life.

#### What to Expect

Your care team will focus on managing pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, nausea, and other symptoms. Emotional and spiritual support is also available. Care is coordinated with your existing medical team.

### Care Coordination

Palliative care is a collaborative approach. Our team works alongside your physicians, specialists, and family to ensure your care plan reflects your values, goals, and preferences.

#### When to Call

If you or a loved one is living with a serious illness and struggling with symptoms, pain, or quality of life, palliative care may help. You do not need to be in hospice to receive palliative support.
