Frequently Asked Questions

Palliative care is specialised care that focuses on providing relief from pain and other symptoms caused by a life-limiting illness. The goal is to improve the quality of life for both the client and their loved ones, offering physical, emotional, and spiritual support.

While both palliative and end of life care aim to provide comfort, palliative care can be provided at any stage of a terminal illness and alongside any ongoing treatment. End of life care, on the other hand, is specifically for those nearing the end of their life and focuses on providing dignity and comfort during their final days.

Anyone with a terminal or life-limiting illness, such as cancer, heart failure, Alzheimer's, and other complex health conditions, is eligible for palliative care.

The NHS typically covers the costs of End of Life care, including care provided at home or in a hospice. Please refer to our funding care page for more detailed information.
