What Is Palliative Care?
Individuals with serious or life-threatening illnesses may struggle to manage pain and cope with the effects of medical treatment. This care is aimed at providing relief from pain, serious symptoms, and side effects of medication, and is usually available at any stage of treatment.
You can avail palliative and end-of-life care for loved ones for serious illnesses such as:
- Heart conditions.
- Lung disorders.
- Kidney issues.
- Liver ailments.
- Neurological conditions like Parkinson's.
- Cancers.
- Stroke-related complications.
- Dementia-related disorders.
- Cystic fibrosis.
- Bone marrow and blood conditions needing stem cell transplant.
It is a common misconception that care is available only if the condition is incurable, in fact, it can help patients better cope with the side effects of medical treatments and retain a quality of life.
Inpatient Palliative Care in Edmonton
Providing ongoing care for a loved one while they are admitted in a facility can be difficult for family members, due to work commitments and the emotional toll it takes. With ComForCare, you can ensure your loved ones have a qualified caregiver by their side.
Outpatient Palliative Care in Edmonton
People are most comfortable at home, which is why many people prefer to be home when dealing with serious and life-limiting illnesses. Our caregivers help people manage symptoms and pain, keep up with ongoing treatments, and retain quality of life. We ensure medication is administered at the right time, that your loved ones maintain their diet, and that they have the support they need at home.
Chaplaincy and Bereavement Support

- Providing care and support for critically ill loved ones.
- Contacting your family's chaplain or faith representative.
- Conducting prayers and multi-faith services.
- Providing support and counselling to cope with stress, grief, and anxiety.
