Q1. What is palliative care at home?

Palliative care is a specialized form of medical and supportive care focused on relieving symptoms, pain, and stress associated with serious (chronic or life-limiting) illness to improve quality of life — for both the patient and their family. When delivered at home, it allows patients to stay in the comfort and familiarity of their own environment, surrounded by loved ones, while receiving professional care and support.

Q2. Do nurses perform wound dressing or post-operative wound care?

Yes. Nurses perform all types of dressings including:

Post-surgery dressing
Bedsore/pressure sore dressing
Diabetic wound care
Infection control
Suture/staple site monitoring
Materials can be arranged at home if needed.

Q3. Are your nurses trained in emergency response?

Yes. Our nurses are trained in:

CPR & BLS
Managing sudden saturation drops
Handling ventilator alarms
Stabilizing patients
Coordinating safe transfer to hospital

Q4. Do nurses maintain medical charts or daily reports?

Yes. Nurses maintain complete clinical documentation including:

Vitals chart
Medication record
Intake/output chart
Wound progress notes
Nursing observations
These are shared with families and doctors as needed.

Q5. Can palliative care at home co-exist with ongoing treatment (chemotherapy,dialysis, etc.)?

Yes. Palliative care can run alongside curative or life-sustaining treatments. The goal is not to stop treatment — but to alleviate symptoms, manage side effects, offer comfort and support during the treatment journey.
