Palliative Care
The word “hospice” comes from the Latin word “Hospes”: meaning to host a guest or stranger.
Palliative (as in Palliative care) is derived from the Latin word “palliare”, which means “to cloak”, so we are “cloaking” someone with care.
Contrary to outdated definitions that Palliative Care is care only applicable when all else fails, it is a holistic approach which not only addresses symptom management, but aims to provide emotional, social and spiritual support for the patient and family in coping with a life threatening disease. In short, it adds life into days where days cannot be added to life.
