Abstract
Palliative care improves quality of life for patients and families facing life-limiting illnesses. Studies emphasize early integration, interdisciplinary teams, and ethical considerations. Effective pain management, advance care planning, and open communication are vital. Home-based services and palliative care education play key roles. Palliative care addresses physical, psychological, social, and spiritual needs, improving patient well-being.
