Palliative Care
When you are suffering from a life-threatening illness, it can be a painful time for both you and your loved ones. Our palliative care service in the UAE aims to support you during this difficult time, making life more comfortable for everyone involved. Our palliative care service supports adults, young people or children who have been diagnosed with a life-threatening illness, whether that is terminal or curable, who wish to remain living in the comfort of their own homes. In the initial stage of your diagnosis, our Nurses and carers can assist you when attending hospital appointments, being there to support you when you receive good or bad news, and supporting you every step of the way through the stages that follow.
Palliative care is specialized medical care for people with serious illness. It focuses on providing relief from the symptoms and stress of a serious illness. The goal is to improve quality of life for both the patient and the family. Palliative care is the appropriate choice of care for any age and at any stage in a serious illness and can be provided along with curative treatment.
Palliative care is provided by a specially-trained team of doctors, nurses, social workers and other specialists who work together with a patient’s doctors to provide an extra layer of support. The core team includes the doctor, nurse and social worker specialists, Physiotherapists, pharmacists, nutritionists.
