Providing Quality and Compassionate Healthcare Services For Seniors
Palliative Care
Our team proudly provides a unique, multi-disciplined approach to helping patients with serious illnesses.
By focusing on helping provide relief from the physical symptoms and the stress that comes with an illness, our medical professionals are able to improve the quality of life for our patients as well as for their families.
Palliative care services
Palliative care can involve a lot of different things including:
Each point within the palliative care spectrum needs to be considered carefully in order to ensure the best results, and our team of specially trained medical professionals works with a patient’s existing physician to help guide them towards the kind of care that they need.
We know that each patient and each situation is different, and special circumstances are always considered and given attention.
The overall goal of palliative care
The overall goal of any palliative care scenario is to ensure the highest possible level of comfort for patients dealing with an illness, and to give support to families who are helping their loved one in this situation. Often, this can feel like a struggle that is made largely on one’s own, but our approach focuses on providing an attending MD and Nurse Practitioner who regularly visits each patient.
In doing so, it’s much easier to help patients and their family approach each situation in the right way and make certain that they are able to get answers to their questions and help with any issues. Combining our Doctor and Nurse Practitioners with regular medical support staff and caregivers is the best way to make certain that patients get the care they need.
Palliative care may be provided in a number of locations ranging from homes to nursing homes to hospitals, and our team will work with patients and their families to provide multidisciplinary care to them no matter what the situation might be.
Our attending Team provides the highest quality level of care, and assist in overseeing the different steps that facilities take to ensure the maximum amount of comfort for those with serious illnesses. It’s a type of care that focuses on additional support for patients and is particularly important when no cure exists for the illness – only the ability to lessen the severity of some symptoms.
