How much time does pallitive care last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varies. : Nowadays, palliative care places more emphasis on the goals and efficacy of the modalities used for the patients in question, and less emphasis on time. Palliative care is about making a terminally ill patient comfortable and maximizing his/her quality of life left.
