Trinity Health IHA Medical Group, Palliative Care - Ann Arbor Campus

Our team works with your own treatment team to provide care that relieves symptoms such as pain, nausea, or difficulty breathing. We may also provide support for a smooth transition from curative care to care that focuses more on comfort.
Palliative care is different from hospice care, and offers services such as:

• Medication adjustments for better pain control
• Outpatient consultation for oncology patients
• Supportive counseling for patients and loved ones
• Coordination of care with treating physicians and other team members
• Integration of psychological and spiritual aspects of health care with the physical aspects
• Information on the course of illness, options for care, and other health concerns
• Creating a comforting, soothing environment for the seriously ill patient
• Companionship for patients who are dying and are alone

Talk to your doctor or care team if you are interested in receiving palliative care.
