Transitions Palliative Care Program
“Palliate” means to ease, and the focus of Palliative Care is to ease the suffering that results from illness.
Palliative Care provides treatment for your symptoms, even when the underlying disease cannot be cured. The main goals are to relieve your pain and other discomfort and to reduce you and your family’s stress.
Palliative Care also provides information to help you better live with serious physical illness. It considers emotional, social, and spiritual needs as well.
Palliative Care will help you and your family achieve a better quality of life during your illness.
