3. What is PALLIATIVE CARE?
Origin (Latin): Palliatus (cloak, blanket).
Palliative Care is an integrated system of care that improves the quality of life by providing pain and symptoms relief, spiritual and psycho-social support from diagnosis to the end of life and bereavement.
- World Health Organization, 2005 3

However in Indonesia it is prioritized for cancer due to the high mortality rate and high costs of treatment.
At RSUD Dr. Soetomo, Palliative Care belongs to the Department of Oncology.

Now I’m no longer a burden and can enjoy the rest of my days with my husband and children.
