The Assunta Palliative Care Centre aims to make the lives of terminally ill patients free from pain.
DR FELICIA Chang and her clinical team of six at the Assunta Palliative Care Centre (AsPacc) have their hands full most days, caring for the terminally ill patients who call on them for help. As palliative care clinicians, their role is to relieve the pain, distress and other physical, emotional and spiritual problems that follow a patient with a terminal illness. The ultimate goal is to improve quality of life for both the patient and their family, regardless of the type of diagnosis.
