Palliative care

What our palliative care clients and families frequently ask

Is palliative care the same as end of life care?

Palliative care becomes accessible from the moment you become aware of a life-limiting (terminal) illness. It is possible to receive palliative care concurrently with other therapies aimed at treating your condition. As you approach the end of life, end-of-life care becomes a specific type of palliative care provided.

How long can a person live on palliative care?

Palliative care encompasses the care and assistance provided to individuals with a life-limiting illness. Importantly, it does not imply an imminent end of life. Initiation of palliative care is based on individual needs and may extend from a few days to well over a year, determined by the unique requirements of each individual.

Which signs would you notice if the end-of-life is near?

​In the final stages of life, various changes occur as the body slows down, indicating the approach of the end. These changes include weight loss, increased weakness, heightened need for sleep, fluctuations in body temperature, reduced appetite and fluid intake, challenges with bladder and bowel functions, breathlessness, and noisy breathing.
