As per the WHO, Palliative care is an approach that improves the quality of life of patients (adults and children) and their families who are facing problems associated with a life-threatening illness.
The need for palliative care has never been greater. Non-communicable diseases like cancer are on the rise. At present, in India, we have around 30 lakh people with cancer at any given time. Of these, 75-80 percent come with advanced disease and half of them die within a year. Yet no more than 2 percent receive palliative care because of the paucity of services.
To share more insights, I invited Dr. Vidya, a well-respected physician in the field of Palliative Care as the guest on my show today.
