Palliative care
At AQB, we offer Palliative Care at home for those who are in an advanced stage of a serious or terminal illness and need support and care at home. Our team is composed of medical and nursing professionals specialized in palliative care, whose aim is to improve the quality of life of patients and achieve adequate control of physical, psychological, and spiritual symptoms.
Palliative Care at home is an option for those who do not want or cannot receive hospital care and prefer to stay at home during the final stage of their illness. We offer comprehensive and personalized care, which includes:
- Pain control and symptom management: We use specific treatments to relieve pain and other physical and emotional discomfort, and work with the patient’s medical team to regularly evaluate and adjust treatments.
- Personalized patient care: We tailor our palliative care to the specific needs of each patient and provide personalized, high-quality care.
