About Our Palliative Care
Our Palliative Care service addresses the symptoms, pain, and stress of any chronic illness.
Palliative care is not the same as hospice care. Unlike hospice care, palliative care is not just for people who are at the end of their life. Instead, palliative care is specialized comprehensive care for persons with a serious chronic illness that focuses on managing your symptoms and discussing goals of care to improve your quality of life.
Our highly trained interdisciplinary Palliative Care team will work with you and your family to develop a comprehensive care plan that addresses your physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual wellbeing.
Palliative care can be provided while you are still receiving curative treatment for your chronic illness.Patients receiving palliative care report lower symptom intensity, less depression, improved pain control, and higher overall quality of life. This service is available to you from the safety and comfort of your home through our expanded telehealth program.
