Palliative care is specialized medical care for people with serious illnesses – whatever the diagnosis. End-of-life care provides comfort, dignity and quality-of-life care for people with life-limiting illnesses and support for family and friends. The focus is on comfort care, such as pain control, rather than care aimed at curing illness.
We partner with you, your family and your caregivers to meet your physical, emotional, social and spiritual care needs. While you are in our care, your personal, cultural and faith values will be respected at all times, as well as your beliefs and practices. The type of palliative care services you receive depends on your needs and the stage of your illness.
