If you or a loved one is living with a serious illness or its complications, finding comfort and support is essential. At West Tennessee Healthcare, our palliative care services are designed to help patients feel better physically, emotionally, and spiritually at any stage of their illness. Whether newly diagnosed or managing long-term symptoms, palliative care provides relief, improves quality of life, and supports the whole person.
Palliative care offers support at any point during a serious illness, not just when curative treatments end. Unlike hospice care, it can begin early in the disease process and works alongside ongoing medical treatment. Palliative care helps reduce stress, manage symptoms, and relieve pain. It also addresses emotional, social, and practical challenges, providing comprehensive support for both patients and their families.
Facing a terminal illness can feel overwhelming, both for patients and their families. Palliative care provides expert support to help manage the emotional, social, and practical challenges that come with serious illness. Our dedicated team works closely with patients and loved ones to ease the burden and improve quality of life during this difficult time.
Palliative care services are available in hospital settings, while Hospice of West Tennessee provides hospice care in the comfort of a patient's home. Whether through palliative care or hospice services, our team is committed to delivering compassionate support and relief when it’s needed most.
