Pediatric Hospice Care
Pediatric hospice care is a specialized service for children with life-limiting illnesses and their families. It focuses on providing comfort, pain management, and emotional support rather than curative treatment. The goal is to enhance the quality of life for the child and their family, ensuring they spend meaningful time together. Care is tailored to the child’s needs and can occur at home or in a facility, involving a team of medical professionals, counselors, and volunteers. This compassionate approach helps families navigate the challenges of illness and grief while honoring the child's wishes and dignity.
