End of Life CarePalliative care - special care for patients living with advanced serious illnesses or life-threatening conditions – is available at Texas Health hospitals. Palliative care also focuses on caring for family members who are facing difficult medical decisions with their loved one. Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Fort Worth hosted the first dedicated palliative care inpatient unit in North Texas. Texas Health Arlington Memorial Hospital was the first hospital in the area to open an inpatient hospice unit. Hospice care is focused on enhancing the comfort and quality of life of people who are terminally ill.
