What is the Difference Between Palliative Care and Hospice Care?

Both hospice care and palliative care are often used to refer to end-of-life care, however each one has distinct differences and it’s important to understand what those differences are so that you can decide on the best course of action for your loved one.

With palliative care, the care goes where the patient goes but it’s generally handled at a medical facility. Hospice care can be anywhere a patient is, including at their home, at a long-term care facility or other location. Hospice care is normally available to those who are expected to pass away from the normal course of an illness or condition within the next six months, or those who are suffering from a terminal illness. Palliative care has no specific restriction or time limit. It is offered to anyone at any stage of illness or recovery period.

Both types of care provide several levels of physical, emotional and spiritual care to allow families to enjoy a deeper and more meaningful connection and healing power with their loved one — a power that ripples out to affect every area in a way that helps them feel peace of mind and feel at ease. It’s very common during this time to feel overwhelmed, confused, guilty and uncertain, but with the right Tarzana hospice care team on your side, you’ll be able to move forward with confidence, knowing that you’re doing everything you can for your loved one’s care and comfort.
