Hospice and Palliative Medicine
Hospice care is a growing choice for those facing the end of life, prioritizing comfort and quality of life for individuals with serious illnesses. It becomes relevant when curative treatments are no longer effective or desired.
Palliative care is specialized medical support for individuals with severe illnesses, like cancer or heart failure. Patients may receive palliative care alongside curative treatments, with the focus on improving their and their family's quality of life.
