FAQs
What Is Palliative Care?
Palliative care is a specialized approach to support and relieve individuals with chronic conditions by managing their physical, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being and comfort. It aims to enhance quality of life and peace of mind for families.
What is the difference between Palliative Care and Hospice?
Hospice delivers services to those with limited life expectancy, while palliative care can be provided any time after diagnosis of a chronic illness, even during treatment.
Are Palliative Caregivers Trained?
Our caregivers earn non-medical training through a unique Palliative Care Certification. They use this specialized training to address the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of chronically ill individuals to positively impact their quality of life.
How and When Is Palliative Care Started?
If you have a loved one living with a chronic condition, contact your local Visiting Angels home care office to learn more about our compassionate approach to in-home palliative care.
How Long Can Palliative Care Services Be Used?
Palliative services are not time-limited. They can start at diagnosis and continue through end-of-life care. Services can be stopped or started at any time as symptoms change. We also support palliative care through end-of-life planning.
