Comprehensive Care of Terminal diseases

Terminal illnesses are chronic and progressive conditions that cannot be cured and often require palliative care to manage symptoms and improve quality of life. In Nigeria, terminal illnesses pose a significant burden on patients, families, and the healthcare system.

Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally and accounts for 70% of cancer-related deaths in low- and middle-income countries, including Nigeria.

Nigeria reports 72,000 cancer deaths annually and 102,000 new cases. Hope Beyond Cancer" is a comprehensive medical outreach program that provides cancer patients the focal point  and others living with terminal illnesses with access to:
