Day Night Nursing Home Care is provided by a specially-trained team of doctors, nurses and other specialists who work together with a patient’s other doctors to provide an extra layer of support. It is appropriate at any age and at any stage in a serious illness, and it can be provided along with curative treatment. This type of care is focused on providing relief from the symptoms and stress of a serious illness.
Nursing care and palliative care are very similar when it comes to the most important issue for dying people: care. Most people have heard of Nursing care and have a general idea of what services Nursing provides. What they don’t know or what may become confusing is that Nursing provides “palliative care,” and that palliative care is both a method of administering “comfort” care and increasingly, an administered system of palliative care offered most prevalently by hospitals. Where palliative care programs and Nursing care programs differ greatly is in the care location, timing, payment, and eligibility for services.
