Palliative care: The untapped potential in your lung cancer journey

Palliative care is a holistic approach designed to improve the quality of life for patients and families facing life-threatening illnesses like lung cancer. A dedicated team of doctors, nurses, social workers and other specialists collaborates with a patient’s existing health care providers to offer an extra layer of support and specialized care. Palliative care aims to relieve symptoms, side effects and stress for those living with lung cancer.
