About

Palliative care is crucial in humanitarian emergencies as it addresses the severe health-related suffering experienced by individuals during emergencies.

 

Palliative care provides holistic support, encompassing physical, emotional, social, and spiritual aspects, ensuring dignity and comfort for those facing life-threatening conditions. Integrating palliative care into humanitarian responses not only alleviates suffering but also upholds ethical standards and human rights, fostering a compassionate approach to emergency healthcare.
