HOME CARE
Palliative care is specialized medical care for people with
serious illness. It focuses on providing relief from the symptoms and stressors
caused by a serious life-threatening illness. The goal is to improve the
overall quality of life/health for both the patient and the family, through
prevention and relief of disease manifestations by means of early
identification and ideal assessment and treatment of pain, physical
impairments/movement, psychosocial problems and nutritional values.
