palliatve care team

At Pallitus Health Partners, you’ve got a palliative care team full of professionals that are here for you to ensure you live better, longer. Our teams of doctors, nurse practitioners, nurses and social workers care for patients right at home. They work alongside your other doctors and specialists to help you navigate the challenges of serious illness — physical, medical, social, and emotional. Each member plays a significant role in your care plan, and it’s important for you to understand what each role does.
