WHAT IS PALLIATIVE CARE:
Need more than "take 2 aspirin and call me in the morning?" KVH has a service called Palliative Care.
Palliative Care (PC) is similar in meaning to the word "alleviating."
Palliative Care is care whose goal is to alleviate problems, symptoms, and pain for people with longer term health challenges.
With Palliative Care the patient can enjoy a relationship with a nurse who can come to their home periodically for a visit to help. A nurse is also available by phone for questions.
Patients with longer health challenges are often focused on staying in their homes as long as possible, and PC can help with that goal. Patients can be any age.
HOW DOES A PATIENT START PALLIATIVE CARE:
They can ask their KVH Provider to get them started.
