Pediatric Palliative Care

For children living with a life-limiting or terminal condition, our pediatric palliative care team provides compassionate, family-centered support during some of life’s most difficult moments. Our experienced pediatric palliative care provider partners closely with families to develop an individualized plan of care focused on what matters most to the child and family—comfort, dignity, and quality of life.

Pediatric palliative care can be beneficial for children with genetic and neurologic disorders, chronic heart and lung conditions, cancer, and other serious illnesses. By addressing symptoms, pain, and emotional stress, our team helps improve quality of life while supporting families every step of the way.

Services Include:

• Individualized care planning aligned with family goals and values
• Expert management of pain and other distressing symptoms
• Emotional and psychosocial support for patients and families
• Care coordination with the child’s medical team and specialists
• Guidance with complex medical decision-making
• Support for families navigating serious or terminal diagnoses

Our palliative care physician works collaboratively with each child’s care team to establish realistic goals and a thoughtful plan of care that prioritizes comfort, support, and quality of life.
