You might be here because…

  • You are facing a serious or chronic illness

  • A recent health scare has changed your priorities

  • You are a caregiver or loved one who feels overwhelmed and frustrated, looking for more support and guidance.

If hearing palliative care makes your stomach drop, you are not alone. It is often misunderstood as the end of life or giving up.

You’re not jinxing it by exploring your options. 

The truth: Palliative care is about living better at any stage and any age.

The sooner you begin, the more choices, support, and comfort you have. You can feel prepared even when life throws a curveball.

    • THE TRUE GUIDE

    Stage of LifeStandard HospiceTrue Palliative Care (TPC)

    Discovery
    (Serious illness, complications of aging)

    • Usually begins only when a condition is advanced.
    • Focused narrowly on comfort, not prevention or quality of life.
    • Minimal physician involvement and limited family guidance.
    • Few holistic or alternative options.
    • Meet your personal care team at home, including physicians, nurses, and counselors who focus on you — not just your diagnosis.
    • Manage symptoms early — from pain, fatigue, and nausea to anxiety and breathlessness — so you can stay comfortable and independent.
    • Feel supported as a family, with counseling and planning that reduce fear and strengthen communication.
    • Enhance daily life through nutrition, movement, and emotional therapies that restore energy and balance.
    • Access holistic healing such as massage, music therapy, acupuncture, Reiki, guided imagery, and grief support — so your mind and body can heal together.

    Navigation
    (Disease progression, complex needs)

    • Often limited to patients with six-month prognosis.
    • Care runs parallel but separate from treatment; minimal integration.
    • Emotional and spiritual needs are rarely addressed.
    • Continue active treatments (chemo, dialysis, cardiac care, etc.) with palliative support that eases the toll on your body and mind.
    • Stay centered through emotional and spiritual guidance that honors your beliefs and helps you find peace amid uncertainty.
    • Stay connected — we coordinate directly with your doctors and specialists, so your care plan feels seamless and consistent.
    • Empower loved ones with education, coping tools, and advocacy, so everyone feels supported and informed.

    Legacy
    (End-of-life, final chapter)

    • Hospice only.
    • Primarily medical comfort care with limited emotional depth or flexibility.
    • Few bridges to pre-hospice or post-loss support.
    • Bridge naturally to Empowered Endings when ready — ensuring continuity through hospice, MAiD, or VSED support.
    • Experience compassionate, comfort-focused care that protects dignity and peace every step of the way.
    • Support family healing through counseling, legacy work, and grief care that continues beyond the bedside.
    • Find meaning and closure through emotional, spiritual, and holistic support — so the final chapter feels intentional, not rushed.

    Testimonials

    Mary Leavit

    "My 101 year old uncle, who was bed ridden and clear of mind wanted this service, Dr Bob and staff were so helpful and compassionate and helped us help my uncle , very peaceful, he is no longer suffering, a merciful service"

    Lisa Mariano

    " I called in my social worker role on behalf of a hospice client. I was met with such kindness and professionalism. I was also generously given education and information in such a thoughtful way. If patients are treated as well as this mere stranger calling and inquiring about services, they're in for astonishing care! As it should be. I am so impressed and have great respect for Dr. Uslander, his practice, and his brilliant and compassionate staff."
