Home Departments Palliative Care

Palliative care is a multidisciplinary approach to specialized medical care for patients suffering from life-limiting illnesses. Its primary focus is to improve the quality of life of patients and their families by providing relief from the symptoms, pain, mental stress, and physical stress endured during the course of the illness.
Palliative care has proven to show the best results when started in the early identification stages of the illness, paired with the treatment course that is required. A specially trained team of dedicated doctors, nurses, therapists, along with other specialists work closely with the patient’s doctor to provide the best possible medical attention and comfort possible. Palliative care improves the quality of life for patients suffering from cancers, old age, and other debilitating medical conditions.

The Department of Palliative Care comprises a multidisciplinary team of doctors, nurses, therapists, physiotherapists, and consultants, devoted to bettering the quality of life of the patients and their families. With the employment of modern medicinal techniques and the latest facilities and equipment, the department is capable of offering a wide range of palliative care programs for a number of illnesses. The department’s main goal is to enhance the comfort of the patient as much as possible by offering pain management, therapy, and consultancies by specialists.
