We also offer professional psychotherapeutic support to patients' relatives. Qualified specialists conduct individual, couple and family discussions and teach relaxation and stabilisation techniques to reduce anxiety and stress reactions.
People with a serious incurable illness are exposed to a variety of stresses. They often lose more than their physical health. The increasing loss of physical functions, weakness, pain, exhausting therapies and the confrontation with imminent death can also lead to psychological suffering. Psychological care for our patients is therefore an important part of our multi-professional treatment concept. However, relatives are also usually under enormous emotional strain as a result of the situation. In palliative care, they also receive the team's attention and support.
