hospice nursing

Hospice nursing focuses on providing compassionate care for individuals with terminal illnesses, aiming to improve quality of life rather than cure the disease. Hospice nurses support patients and families by managing pain and symptoms, offering emotional and psychological comfort, and assisting with daily needs. They work as part of a team to ensure comfort, dignity, and respect during the end-of-life journey. The goal is to help patients live as fully and comfortably as possible, emphasizing support and compassion in the final stages of life.
