Thanks to the efforts of
advocates like you, the bill to establish a State Advisory Council on
Palliative Care and Quality of Life is heading to the Senate floor for a full
vote this afternoon. Let your Senator know it is time
to take the next step to reduce barriers and increase access to palliative care
in Louisiana.
Palliative care is specialized,
coordinated medical care for people with serious illnesses like cancer and is
appropriate at any age and any stage of their illness. The goal is to improve
the quality of life for both the patient and their family and can lead to a
more efficient health care system.
