Centre for Palliative Medicine and Pain Management
The Centre for Palliative Medicine and Pain Management offers comprehensive care and support to patients and their families coping with advanced cancer. We deliver multi-professional services both to patients receiving palliative cancer treatment as well as to those with very limited or exhausted anti-cancer therapy options. Our team of experts will help you and your loved ones to deal with the physical, psychological, and social burden that cancer may impose. Our primary goal is to enable our patients to live a meaningful and good-quality life despite the difficulties associated with their disease.
We work closely with other teams and facilities within MMCI, as well as GPs, mobile and inpatient hospices in order to provide continuing patient support.
