Both palliative care and hospice care help people with serious and complicated illnesses. But there are some key differences. Palliative care can be given no matter how long someone is expected to live.
Palliative care is for people who have a serious illness, no matter how long they might live. It can be given at the same time as treatments that try to cure the illness or help the person live longer. Palliative care works alongside the doctors and nurses already helping the person.
Hospice care is for people who are near the end of life. It helps them feel comfortable and supported. Hospice care also supports family members and meets emotional and spiritual needs. It can take place in a hospital, at home, or in a special care facility. Hospice teams help manage pain, offer emotional support, and help families deal with grief.
