Palliative Care

While terminally ill patients receive several curative interventions to cure their illness, it is ideal that they are also offered counselling as part of Palliative Care. This helps them better handle the pain involved, the symptomatic discomforts and the psychological stress involved. The stress is not only for the patients, but also for their relatives. Researches point out that there is a distinct possibility that counselling helps a lot in such circumstances. The ultimate goal for such an intervention is to improve the outlook & quality-of-life for the patients as well as the family members attending on them.
