Palliative care in Chennai

Our focus is on improving quality of life, relieving pain and symptoms, and providing emotional and spiritual support — for both patients and their families.

What is Palliative Care?

Palliative care is a specialized form of medical care aimed at relieving the symptoms, pain, and stress caused by serious illnesses such as cancer, heart failure, kidney disease, neurological disorders, and advanced chronic conditions.

Unlike curative treatments, palliative care focuses on comfort and dignity, regardless of the patient’s age or stage of illness. It can be provided alongside other treatments or as the primary focus of care.

Who Needs Palliative Care?

Palliative care is suitable for patients facing any of the following:

• Advanced cancer or terminal illness

• Chronic kidney failure or liver disease

• Heart failure or severe respiratory conditions (e.g., COPD)

• Progressive neurological conditions (e.g., Parkinson’s disease, ALS)

• Dementia or Alzheimer’s disease

• Severe pain, fatigue, breathlessness, or emotional distress

Our team at BM Hospital supports both patients and caregivers through every stage of the illness.
