End-of-life care, also known as palliative or hospice care
End-of-life care, also known as palliative or hospice care, focuses on providing comfort, dignity, and quality of life to individuals with terminal illnesses or those in the final stages of a chronic condition. The primary goal is to alleviate pain and manage symptoms while offering emotional, spiritual, and practical support to both the individual and their family. End-of-life care is tailored to the individual’s unique needs, preferences, and values, ensuring a holistic approach to the care experience.

Types of Care Provided in End-of-Life Settings
Palliative Care:
- Palliative care can be provided alongside curative treatments to help manage symptoms and improve the individual’s quality of life. It is not limited to the last stages of life and can be provided at any stage of a terminal or chronic illness.
Hospice Care:
- Hospice care is focused specifically on individuals nearing the end of life, typically with a prognosis of six months or less. The emphasis is on comfort rather than curative treatment. Hospice care can be provided in the home, in a hospice facility, or in a hospital.
Home-Based Care:
- Many individuals prefer to receive end-of-life care in their homes, surrounded by family and in a familiar environment. Private duty nurses, support workers, and hospice teams often collaborate to provide care at home.
Inpatient Care:
- For individuals requiring more intensive medical support, inpatient hospice or palliative care in hospitals or specialized facilities may be necessary. This option allows for continuous monitoring and symptom management.
