We’re re-imagining what palliative care means and when it begins

Historically, cancer care has been limited to pain management and treats only the patient, with hospice being introduced in the final stages once quality of life has diminished. Little is customized, support groups infrequent and caregivers are experiencing burnout, yet studies have shown that patients who receive palliative care live longer compared to those who don’t.

Two patients with the same disease often can have very different priorities, hence the need for a custom, integrated approach for those facing a malignant prognosis, so that they may maximize the time they have left with the ones they love.

CANCER DOESN'T CARE WHO YOU ARE

In 2024, it is estimated that 193,880 Californians will be diagnosed with cancer, which is equivalent to over 22 new cases every hour.
