Description:
Palliative care is a model of health care that cares for people with terminal illnesses, along with their families, in order to relieve suffering and improve quality of life. Care is provided from early diagnosis through to bereavement care of the family. Palliative care is delivered by an interprofessional team which is most often comprised of medicine, nursing, social work and chaplaincy; other professions are often involved such as pharmacy, occupational therapy and others.
