Description

Patients in palliative or hospice care are those who are approaching the end of their lives and for whom aggressive therapy is not desired. Palliative care focuses on the comfort and well-being of the patient and the caregiver to maintain a good quality of life. Pain management is best treated with multi-modal therapy. The use of pharmaceuticals, physical medicine and lifestyle management will be outlined to ensure the comfort of these very special patients.
