Palliative care empowerment

Article

ZHOU, Hong

Palliative care serves as a cornerstone of compassionate healthcare, offering crucial support to individuals facing serious illness and their families. This abstract delves into the concept of palliative care empowerment, emphasizing its role in promoting dignity, autonomy, and well-being for patients and their loved ones. Palliative care empowerment encompasses a range of principles and practices, including providing knowledge and information, honoring autonomy and choice, promoting dignity and respect, facilitating meaningful conversations, and supporting shared decision-making. By empowering individuals to make informed decisions about their care, articulate their values and preferences, and engage in open dialogue with healthcare providers, palliative care fosters a sense of control, dignity, and resilience in the face of illness. Through a collaborative approach that values the unique experiences and perspectives of each individual, palliative care empowerment affirms the inherent worth and value of every person, enabling them to navigate the complexities of serious illness with grace and dignity.
