Palliative Care Services

For those patients and their families who are dealing with a serious or painful illness, specialized care is available to help you cope with the physical and emotional needs. Our palliative care team assists patients and their families to help relieve suffering and improve the quality of life for patients with a life-threatening illness. This whole person care is delivered at ANY stage of a serious illness.

Palliative Care can be especially helpful for patients and their families dealing with one or more of the following issues:

  • Symptom management (pain, anxiety, shortness of breath, nausea, constipation)
  • Complex decision-making (illness management, treatment course, goals of care)
  • Advance care planning (decisions regarding life-sustaining and life-extending measures, planning for crisis events, preparing for end-of-life decisions)
