About us
MOMO Pediatric Palliative Care Center cares for children, adolescents and young adults who are suffering from terminal and life-threatening diseases.
The multi-professional team provides support at home and in the center MOMO ZeitRaum for seriously ill children and their affected family members, including siblings, parents and grandparents: medical care, nursing care, psychological support, music therapy, social work care and voluntary hospice work. If required, this can be made available from the time of diagnosis – for several weeks or many years. The care provided by MOMO Pediatric Palliative Care Center is just as unique as the individual needs of every seriously ill child and every family situation.
The pediatric palliative care service fosters a holistic understanding of the children, adolescents and young adults, and treats them with respect and honesty regardless of background, worldview or social status. The efforts focus on maintaining and improving the quality of life of the patients and their families.
Support from MOMO is free of charge for the families, regardless of the number of visits by a MOMO employee or their length of stay. The same policy counts for all the services provided at MOMO ZeitRaum. Because every family of a seriously ill child should have access to professional hospice and palliative care that is affordable.
MOMO Pediatric Palliative Care Center relies largely on the generosity of voluntary donors.
