Types of Pain Care

What is Palliative Care?

Palliative care is a specialized approach that focuses on improving the quality of life for people living with cancer. It addresses physical symptoms like pain and fatigue, as well as emotional and spiritual concerns, to help you live as comfortably and meaningfully as possible.

Cancer treatment primarily aims to cure or control the disease, while palliative care focuses on symptom management and improving well-being. Both approaches can work together to create a comprehensive care plan that meets your individual needs.

Palliative care can:
  • Reduce pain and other symptoms: Improving your physical comfort and daily functioning.
  • Alleviate anxiety and fear: Providing emotional support and guidance to cope with the challenges of cancer.
  • Enhance quality of life: Tailoring care to your values and preferences, allowing you to live life to the fullest.
Empower you to make informed decisions: Offering clear explanations and facilitating second opinions for peace of mind.

Palliative care is beneficial for anyone living with cancer, regardless of the stage of disease or treatment plan. It can be initiated early in the diagnosis and continued throughout your journey.

At Good Life Clinic, your palliative care plan is tailored to your unique needs and goals. It may include:

  • Symptom management: Medications, therapies, and other strategies to address pain, fatigue, nausea, and other discomforts.
  • Emotional and spiritual support: Individual or group counselling, spiritual guidance, and support for caregivers.
  • Nutritional guidance: Personalized dietary advice to optimize your strength and well-being.

Advance care planning: Discuss your preferences for future medical care to ensure your wishes are respected.
