Palliative care is a service designed for individuals of any age with a life-limiting illness. When a cure is no longer the goal of treatment, palliative care focuses on maintaining the highest possible quality of life for the individual.
Palliative care supports not only the patient but also carers, family members, neighbours, and friends. We are here to provide the care and guidance needed by everyone involved.

At Ballarat Hospice Care, we see the person beyond the illness. Our holistic approach means we walk alongside individuals, supporting and caring for them throughout their journey.
We ensure our services are responsive to the individual needs of each patient, carer, and family. We offer free in-home specialist palliative care that addresses physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs.
