Specialized outpatient palliative care (SOPC)
Together in Palliative Care
In the case of an incurable illness, the quality of life of patients in the final phase of life takes center stage. We support you with qualified professional and human assistance. This makes it possible to provide medical and nursing care that allows patients to live at home, even with the most severe illnesses.
In collaboration with multidisciplinary teams (SAPV physicians, general practitioners and specialists, pastoral caregivers, hospice services, etc.), we work towards the goal of maintaining, promoting, and improving the quality of life and self-determination of terminally ill people with progressive diseases, enabling them to live a life in dignity until death in their own homes, in care homes, or in hospices.
We offer palliative care in Geesthacht and Schwerin, as well as the surrounding areas.
