Le centre de soins palliatifs vise à fournir à une personne la plus haute qualité de vie pendant ses derniers jours. [...] Les personnes qui travaillent dans un centre de soins palliatifs ont une approche différente des soins médicaux. Elles dirigent davantage leurs efforts sur le soulagement de la douleur et sur les aspects spirituels et émotifs qui entourent la mort non seulement pour le patient, mais aussi pour la famille. 5, record 1, French, - centre%20de%20soins%20palliatifs

centro de cuidados paliativos; unidad de cuidados paliativos: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que la expresión "centro" o "unidad de cuidados paliativos" es preferible en español al anglicismo "hospice". [...] Este anglicismo suele emplearse para referirse a los centros o las unidades de clínicas u hospitales dedicados a la prestación de cuidados paliativos, es decir, de tratamientos o remedios dirigidos a atenuar el dolor de una persona, así como al acompañamiento emocional de sus familiares. 3, record 1, Spanish, - hospital%20para%20enfermos%20terminales
