A palliative approach to care supports those with life limiting illness, to have the best possible quality of life by considering all the needs that a person might have. This could be by providing relief to on-going symptoms - whether physical, psychological, spiritual or emotional. It aims to improve the quality of life of people, whose illness is no longer curable – throughout their disease journey, helping them to live as fully as possible to the end, however long that may be.
