Palliative Care

Try talking about death in any social setting. People look away, silence sets in. We treat death like a taboo which isolates terminally-ill patients and their families. Palliative care aims to discard such stigmata by providing patients and their families with discussion and planning that help them enjoy better quality of life. We learn more about palliative care from Dr. Richard Lim Boon Leong, Consultant Palliative Medicine Physician.
