In-Home Palliative Care
Improving
Quality of Life
Do you, or someone you love, have a serious illness such as cancer, heart failure, lung disease
or kidney failure? If so, you may be sick of trips to the emergency room and unwanted hospital
stays to treat pain, shortness of breath or other symptoms.
Palliative care is different from hospice care because care starts at the initial diagnosis
of a serious illness, curative treatment or at the end of life.
