Palliative care programs serve patients of all ages facing serious illnesses. These programs cover a wide range of services, such as pain and symptom management, emotional and spiritual support, care coordination, family counseling, respite care for caregivers, and specialized support for underserved communities. The comprehensive care that patients and families receive is essential to maintaining quality of life during challenging times. Nearly 1.65 million patients receive hospice care services each year in the United States, with millions more benefiting from palliative care programs, which shows the critical need for these services.
