Palliative Care at Home in Uganda
Palliative care focuses on relief from pain and other symptoms of a serious illness. It does not depend on whether the condition can be cured, and it can be given alongside other treatment. Its aim is a better quality of life for both the patient and the family.
For patients with chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, heart, kidney or lung disease, our doctors and nurses provide palliative care at home, so they can be comfortable in the place they know, surrounded by the people they love.
Who this care is for
- People living with cancer at any stage
- Patients with advanced heart, kidney, lung or liver disease
- People with long-term conditions causing pain or breathlessness
- Patients nearing the end of life and their families
What's included
Working with the patient's doctors
Our team follows the treatment plan of the patient's hospital or specialist and keeps them informed. Where needed, our own doctors visit at home to review pain control and other symptoms.
Support for the family
Caring for someone with a serious illness is exhausting. We help families understand what is happening, share the load of daily care, and offer counselling and bereavement support when it is needed.

Palliative Care: common questions
Is palliative care only for the last days of life?
No. Palliative care can start at any stage of a serious illness and can be given alongside treatment aimed at a cure.
Can pain be controlled at home?
In most cases, yes. Our nurses give prescribed pain medicines, monitor comfort, and involve a doctor when the plan needs to change.
Do you support families after a loss?
Yes. Bereavement support and counselling for families are part of our palliative care.
