Is your loved one living with a serious illness and needs help managing their symptoms? You may want to consider palliative care. Palliative care focuses on cure of serious illness, relief from symptoms and quality of life for your loved one as they deal with their serious illness. Palliative care allows your loved one to keep their current doctor and provides a team of doctors, nurses, social workers and counselors to help as well. Palliative care coordinates with other treatments that your loved one is already receiving. There are many things that you can do to make this an easier process for your loved one and family. In fact, we’ve collected several helpful articles detailing steps you can take.
Find out how palliative care can help your loved one in our article here.
