How is the integration of palliative care changing cancer treatment?
The integration of palliative care into cancer treatment is transforming the way care is provided to patients. Palliative care focuses on improving the quality of life for patients by managing symptoms, providing psychological support, and addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of patients and their families. Early integration of palliative care alongside curative treatments has been shown to enhance patient outcomes and satisfaction, reduce hospitalizations, and improve overall well-being.
