Abstract
The aim of palliative care is to alleviate suffering in patients and their families by evaluating all of the symptoms that patients experience on a physical, psychological, and spiritual level and treating them. It assists patients and their loved ones in reaching an appropriate medical treatment agreement and supporting the patient care objective with medical providers. The establishment of advance directives, the need for a proxy, and the status of resuscitation are all crucial components of palliative care towards the end of life. Recognizing the function of palliative care at the end of life is the goal of this review. A patient's symptom load may grow as death draws near, necessitating more extensive palliation. The care given to the relatives of a dying patient improves as ease measures do. After a patient has passed away, palliative care's job is mostly focused on providing the patient's family with assistance during this difficult time.
