What is palliative care?
Palliative care is not the same as hospice care. It does not serve only the patients who are at end of life. Instead, palliative care aims to help patients with chronic illnesses live with those conditions by focusing on improving their quality of life.
Diseases that are commonly treated by palliative care specialists include cancer, heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and Alzheimer's, among others.
