Question

what do hospice and palliative care have in common? (check all that apply)
comfort care
reduce stress
offer complex symptom relief related to serious illness
physical and psycho - social support
focus on curing the disease

Explanation:

Hospice care is for those with a terminal illness (usually with a prognosis of 6 months or less if the disease runs its normal course), while palliative care is for people with serious illnesses at any stage. Both aim to provide comfort (comfort care), reduce stress (from the illness and its treatment), and offer physical and psycho - social support. However, hospice care does not focus on curing the disease (as the focus is on quality of life in the end - of - life stage), and while palliative care can be part of a treatment plan that may include curative intent, the option “Offer complex symptom relief related to serious illness” is more specific to palliative care in a strict sense (though some aspects of symptom relief are in common, the phrasing “complex symptom relief related to serious illness” is more of a palliative care hallmark in a detailed categorization).

Answer:

Comfort care, Reduce stress, Physical and psycho - social support.
