PALLIATIVE GENEVA:
the Palliative Care Portal for All
Because when faced with a difficult medical situation, personally or professionally, multiple forms of support are necessary.
Care beyond the core of the illness itself is crucial to make life as easy as possible. So that you can quickly find answers to your questions and needs: Palliative Geneva provides you with the information you need and connects you.
We bring together all Geneva actors who, directly or indirectly, can contribute to the comfort and quality of life of the person with an incurable progressive disease and their loved ones.
What is Palliative Care?
Palliative care encompasses a variety of supports and care – psychological, medical, social, spiritual. It seeks to relieve people with incurable, potentially fatal and/or chronic progressive diseases from the suffering and complications that result, for themselves and their loved ones.
The goal of palliative care is to accompany and relieve, to allow the best possible quality of life at every moment for the rest of life.
