Palliative Care

Palliative care focuses on relief from the symptoms and stress of serious illness. Our team takes a holistic approach to help those living with a serious, life-limiting illness live well. Our providers will help you and your family:

• Understand your illness and treatment options
• Have the support you need to make decisions about care
• Remain pain- and symptom-free

Palliative care is appropriate at any age and at any stage of an illness, in conjunction with curative treatments. You may benefit from this service if you:

• Have chronic, progressive or complex medical conditions (COPD, CHF, cancer, renal insufficiency)
• Have pain or troubling symptoms that are not well-controlled
• Have made multiple visits to the emergency room or re-admissions to the hospital for the same issues
• Are experiencing psychosocial, spiritual, or caregiver distress
• Are seeking support and assistance with decision-making and treatment goals
