Is palliative care only for the last days of life?
No. Palliative care can run alongside treatment for months, easing symptoms such as pain, breathlessness, nausea and fatigue.
How do you work with the hospital team?
We follow the specialist's written plan, report changes and ask the specialist to review when symptoms are not controlled.
Questions families ask
Can palliative care start straight after hospital discharge?+
Yes. Share the discharge plan early so the nurse and GP can prepare before the patient arrives home.
Do you support the family too?+
Yes. We explain what to expect, agree how updates are shared and include family wishes in the plan.
Can I claim this on insurance?+
We are not an insurance-billing clinic. You pay directly and we issue a fully coded invoice that many international and premium UAE plans reimburse.

"Post-ACL physiotherapy at home in Dubai Marina. The GP-prescribed rehab plan was miles ahead of what I got in clinic — same physio each visit, real progress reviews, back to squash in 14 weeks."
"My mother's post-hip-replacement physio in Jumeirah. Their British GP wrote the whole rehab plan around her surgeon's notes and the physiotherapist followed it to the letter. She's walking unaided already."
