Here is a list of palliative care providers in Kenya. Palliative care is a specialized form of care that provides symptom relief, comfort, and support to people living with serious or chronic illnesses. Its primary goal is to improve the quality of life for both patients and their families.
With the increasing number of Kenyans experiencing serious health-related suffering (SHS), the demand for palliative care services has grown tremendously. Palliative care services may include pain and symptom management, coordination with your healthcare team, assistance in developing your plan of care, and spiritual support. Most palliative care is provided by a specially trained team of doctors, nurses, and other specialists.
Some palliative care providers also offer hospice care, which focuses on individuals in the final stages of a terminal illness. Hospice care prioritizes comfort and support rather than curative treatment. Patients receive medication that enhances their quality of life. Hospice care is typically provided by a team that focuses on the patient's needs, including hospice physicians, nurses, social workers, trained volunteers, clergy, and other specialized therapists as needed.
