Caring for a child with a life-threatening condition is an experience that no parent should go through alone. Paediatric palliative care programs (PPCPs) provide a holistic approach to such care and allow for entire families to stay together with their sick child without having to worry about limited visiting hours, or costs for accommodations or meals.
