2. Hospice care in Mumbai
Hospice care is a type of care designed to provide comfort and support to patients with terminal illnesses, focusing on quality of life rather than curative treatments.
Patients diagnosed with a terminal illness and a life expectancy of six months or less, as determined by a physician, are eligible for hospice care.
Hospice care services include pain and symptom management, emotional and spiritual support, assistance with daily activities, and support for family members.
While both hospice and palliative care focus on comfort and quality of life, hospice care is specifically for patients nearing the end of life, whereas palliative care can be provided at any stage of a serious illness.
The hospice care team typically includes doctors, nurses, social workers, chaplains, home health aides, and trained volunteers.

The ELECTROLYTES Test helps diagnose and monitor conditions such as dehydration, kidney diseases, and metabolic disorders by assessing essential mineral levels.
No special preparation is typically needed, but inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements you are taking.
Abnormal electrolyte levels can indicate dehydration, kidney disorders, heart conditions, diabetes complications, or metabolic imbalances.
Results are usually available within a few hours to a day after the blood sample is collected.
