Palliative Care: Your Emotional and Spiritual Health
This video will explain to patients the connection between dealing with a serious illness and common psychosocial and emotional concerns. The video will explore the impact and management of both conditions like depression, anxiety, delirium, and agitation. It will also stress that the strength that comes from faith can be powerful for some patients living with serious illness.
This video will explain to patients the benefits of palliative care to the physical symptoms of their illness and side effects of their treatment: including pain, shortness of breath, nausea, fatigue, and insomnia.
