Overview
Palliative care focuses on improving the quality of life for patients and their families through the management of symptoms, pain and stress secondary to living with a serious illness. The palliative care team supports anyone with a progressive, serious, or life-limiting illness such as: heart disease, lung disease, liver failure, renal failure, neurodegenerative disorders, (i.e. ALS, MS, Parkinson’s), dementia or cancer. While receiving palliative care, patients can remain under the care of their primary care and specialty providers and continue to receive treatment for their illness.
