Episode 15 Palliative Care.....Myths and Misconceptions

Palliative care is a compassionate approach to healthcare that focuses on enhancing the quality of life for patients facing serious illness, at any stage of treatment. It aims to provide relief from symptoms, pain, and stress, while adressing the emotional, social and spiritual needs of both patients and their caregivers. Unlike curative treatments, which seek to eliminate disease, palliative care prioritizes comfort and support, by helping individuals navigate complex medical decisions and maintain their dignity. By integrating a holistic perspective into care, palliative services strive to improve overall well-being and ensure that patients can live as fully and comfortably as possible.
