Welcome to Palliative Care

The goal of palliative care is to improve quality of life and decrease physical and emotional suffering for patients and families impacted by serious illness and life threatening disease.  Adding palliative care to the plan of care is appropriate for people at any point in a serious chronic illness. 

 

Palliative Care at NMC

NMC partners with local home care agencies and primary care offices to provide focused disease education, enhanced discharge planning and increased communication and collaboration in order to support patients and families impacted by serious illness. 

Care Management staff, now available in almost all local primary care offices and through various community agencies, is able to help patients identify their goals and then to develop and activate a plan of care that includes palliative care when appropriate.
