Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between palliative and hospice care?
Palliative care focuses on comfort and quality of life at any stage of serious illness, alongside curative treatments. Hospice care is specifically for end-of-life when curative treatment has stopped. Our support complements both.
Can I receive palliative support while still receiving treatment?
Absolutely. Our palliative care support is often most valuable during active treatment, helping manage side effects and maintain quality of life while pursuing medical care.
How do you work with my medical team?
With your permission, we can communicate with your healthcare providers to ensure our care supports their treatment plan. We document symptoms and changes that may be helpful for your medical team.
Can care levels change as my condition changes?
Yes, our care is highly flexible. We can increase support during difficult periods and reduce it when you're feeling better. We adapt to your changing needs throughout your journey.
