Apollo Home Healthcare has launched palliative care at home in Delhi and will extend the initiative to Apollo Athenia, a cancer care center for women in the city.
Palliative care focuses on providing relief from symptoms and stress of serious illnesses to improve the quality of life for patients. There is a growing need for accessible palliative care services in India.
The program aims to provide pain management, symptom relief, emotional support, and expert care plans for patients with terminal illnesses through home visits and virtual consultations.
Apollo plans to expand its home-based palliative care model to major cities in India, including tier-2 locations, to improve patient care and quality of life.
