Sentara Hospice Services

Sentara Palliative Care Specialists - Palliative care is a medical specialty that focuses on the many ways serious illness affects you and your family. Palliative care can help with distressing symptoms such as pain, breathing difficulties, problems with sleep, loss of appetite and nausea. It provides both emotional and spiritual support for you and your family. Making decisions about treatment options can be difficult. Palliative care offers open and detailed discussions to help you decide what is best for you. Palliative care can help improve your quality of life now. Ask your primary physician for a palliative care consult. Consults are available at Sentara RMH Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m. - 5 p.m.
