Children's palliative care

Children's palliative care is a type of care that tries to keep children who are very ill comfortable. It is a way to help them make the most of their life, even if they are not getting better. It helps to make sure that their pain and worries are managed, and that as much as possible they can do the things they want to do. The main goal is to help the child and their family to enjoy life, even when their child may not be well.
