Listing

The National Institute on Nursing Research (NINR) and MedlinePlus are teaming up to offer free text messages to support you and your family during a serious illness. 

Text messages will provide information about what palliative care is, the benefits of palliative care, and how to manage the symptoms of a serious illness.

Messages will include palliative care information for both adult and pediatric patients and their families.

Dealing with a serious illness can be difficult. However, special care is available to make you more comfortable right now. It’s called palliative care. You can receive palliative care at the same time that you’re receiving treatments for your illness. Its primary purpose is to relieve the pain and other symptoms you are experiencing and improve your quality of life.
