Palliative Care

Palliative Care is an approach that improves the quality of life of patients and their families facing challenges associated with life threatening illness, through the prevention and relief of suffering by means of early identification, impeccable assessment, management of pain and other problems.

Any person of any age with a confirmed medical diagnosis of a life-limiting condition qualifies for palliative care.

What our patients say

Hey Ma,

I am writing this letter to you to let you know how great full I am for everything you have done for me. You know when I was in the dark you came and gave me hope for my life. Being sick and the loss of my dearly child did affect me physically and emotionally but you came through and helped me. Although I am not fully recovered, but I am going there. I cannot even describe in words how much you have helped me. You got a good heart thank you so much. You are the one I will never forget in my life. Keep on doing the good job. My children and my granny are so great full of you too.

Warm regard.
