Palliative care isn’t just for specialists or terminal patients. It’s a comprehensive approach that:
- Starts at diagnosis and runs alongside curative treatments.

- Helps families navigate grief with tailored psychological resources.
The earlier palliative care begins, the better patients and their loved ones can manage the illness while focusing on what matters most to them.
