What's the difference between palliative care and hospice care?
Palliative care is for anyone with a serious illness—regardless of their stage of treatment. You can receive palliative care while still pursuing curative treatments like chemotherapy or surgery. Hospice care is a specific type of palliative care provided near the end of life, when curative treatments have stopped. Both focus on comfort and quality of life.
