Palliative Care for Cardiac Patients - Heart Talk on WGY

Palliative Care focuses on relief from pain, the symptoms and the stress of serious illness with a goal of improving quality of life for patients and their families. It is a team-based approach, involving specialty-trained doctors, nurses, and social workers
who work with the patient's other health care providers to offer an extra layer of support. Dr. George Giokas visits with us today to discuss providing this level of care in the Capital Region.
