Palliative Care
Palliative care is an approach to care which focuses on comfort and quality of life for people of all ages affected by life-threatening illness.
Where are palliative care services delivered?
The Regional Palliative Care Program is based on the belief that quality end-of life care can be provided in a variety of settings. Specialized palliative care units and hospice settings exist for patients whose needs cannot be met at home or in hospital.
