Palliative Care in India - Improving the quality of life

Palliative care is an interdisciplinary approach to specialized medical and nursing care for people with chronic conditions. It focuses on providing relief from the symptoms, pain, physical stress, and mental stress at any stage of illness. The goal is to improve quality of life for both the person and their family.


India has a vast population who are suffering from life-limiting diseases like cancer. Cancer is the second most common disease in India, responsible for maximum mortality with about 0.3 million deaths per year. People suffering from life-limiting diseases need special treatment which can comfort them and eases their remaining time in this world.


Concepts such as palliative care in India, bringing the change in the life of people with a life-threatening illness and their families. Palliative care is all about improving the quality of life of people who are suffering from life-ending medical conditions. Palliative care aims to provide a better-quality experience by treating pain and other physical, psychosocial, and spiritual problems.


Studies confirm that, for some patients with advanced cancer, palliative care given early during treatment can improve their quality of life and the same is the belief of Mr. Ranvir Shah, trustee of Pratham Hospice Trust. The Pratham Hospice Trust is one of India's leading providers of Palliative care to terminally ill patients, and those beyond hope. The trust is specialized to provide Palliative treatment for cancer but does not limit its treatment to cancer as they also look out of people suffering from HIV and other life-ending diseases.


Why is Palliative care so critical?


Some people think that Palliative care is nothing but pain management in the final months or years. But it is much more than just control of pain. A team delivers palliative care of specialized professionals, including doctors, nurses, social workers, caregivers, pharmacists, and chaplain.

  4. I GOT CURED OF HERPES WITH THE HELP OF DR Patrick OGU , I Am from North Carolina, USA . I caught genital herpes from my ex boyfriend who never had any symptoms of herpes . I had it for 4 years ,and it has literally affected my life before I got cured. People think herpes is really a minor skin irritation, herpes has long term effects on health. The stigma attached to this virus by ignorant people is ridiculous. Most people have herpes in one form or another but they might not be aware of it. I would like to advise people on how I got rid of my herpes by using Dr OGU herbal medicine. I saw a comment posted by a woman from Colorado, on the internet that she got rid of her herpes with the help of doctor OGU. I was so happy when I saw that post. i quickly collected the doctor OGU contact email and I emailed him. Within 1 hr he responded to my email. i explained things to him and he told me not to worry that he will help me. i ordered for his medicine product which was sent to me via DHL. that was how i got the herbal medicine and i used it as i was told for the period of 6 days which is twice a day ( morning and at night before going to bed) .after 8 days, i found out that the herpes was no more and this was also confirmed by my doctor. if you have herpes or other similar disease and you want it cure, kindly contact doctor OGU Patrick via this email ; drogugusolutionhome@gmail.com or text him via: +1 719 629 0982 .
