Neuropalliative and End of Life Care

Neuropalliative and end-of-life care in geriatric neurology focus on providing comfort and support to elderly patients with neurological conditions, such as dementia or Parkinson's disease, as they approach the end of life. This type of care prioritizes managing pain, alleviating symptoms, and addressing emotional and psychological needs, both for the patients and their families. It integrates medical treatment with compassionate support, helping to ensure dignity and quality of life during this challenging time, while also aiding families in coping with the process of loss and grief.
