Cancer in our Community - The caregiver's episode pt 2

This episode is dedicated to my beautiful sister Sukhneil, also known as Sukhy and Pickle.

Terms like hospice and palliative care can instantly make us think of worst case scenarios, but whether you are a patient or a caregiver, they should be considered a normal part of the experience offered by experts in Supportive Care Medicine.

Treating a patient is not just about killing the cancer, but doing everything you can to improve their quality of life, a subject that Dr. Saima Rashid is familiar with as a specialist in palliative care, and Parmvir as a caregiver to her sister Sukhneil.

Join us to learn more about how and when to request services, and the benefits that they offer.
