Abstract :
End of life care is a critical aspect of healthcare that aims to provide comfort, dignity, and support to patients with life-limiting illnesses, including neurologically ill patients. Neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and brain tumors can profoundly impact a patient's quality of life and pose unique challenges in end-of-life decision-making and care provision. This article explores the importance of end of life care in neurologically ill patients and outlines key considerations for healthcare providers, patients, their families and mentions on the training for healthcare professionals available in India.
