Preferred term

palliative care  

Definition

  • Palliative care is a universally available approach to health care that addresses both the needs of patients and families experiencing serious, progressive, or life-threatening illnesses and also the costs of delivering such needed services. Different from a traditional disease-model approach to medicine, palliative care is a paradigm of care focused on anticipating, preventing, and alleviating the suffering of serious, progressive, or life-threatening illness.
