Our in-home palliative care program is available for clients who have a serious illness and need medical and emotional support to improve their quality of life. This type of care offered by Trusted Care Providers Inc. focuses on helping clients relieve the symptoms and stress of an illness.

Palliative care provides comfort to people of all ages who have chronic, serious, or life-threatening illnesses. This program is not like hospice, which offers care for terminally ill individuals.

About In-home Palliative Care

 

In-home palliative care medically treats a patient’s symptoms of a serious illness while hospice focuses only relieving those symptoms. The latter also supports a client who has a short time to live. However, unlike hospice care, professional end-of-life care is necessarily available in palliative care.

When a client is diagnosed with a serious illness and needs palliative care, contact us to learn how our in-home care can help. Our registered nurses and care providers will work with a palliative care team to outline the types of curative treatments and therapies are needed.
